Kansans Weigh Carter Reagan Support In First Kansas Primary
In Kansas the April 1 presidential primary will decide how many of the state’s 37 Democratic and 32 Republican delegates each candidate receives. Carter is favored for Democrats. Reagan leads Republicans though GOP results hinge on Illinois, New York, and Connecticut performances. Voter eligibility, party switching, and uncommitted delegates shape the race as Kansas nears its historic first in‑state delegate selection.
