Robertson bid in Kansas seen as unlikely to defeat Dole
Pat Robertson mounts a serious challenge to Sen. Bob Dole in Kansas county caucuses seeking delegates to district and state conventions, but state GOP Chairman Fred Logan says Dole will win all 34 national delegates. Logan notes Robertson targets caucus states, banks on Republican apathy, yet Kansas Republicans are expected to turnout strong for Dole. Delegates chosen across numerous counties precede the national convention in New Orleans.
