Kobach without firm support in 2012 race
Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach, speaking at the State Fair, said he has not decided whether to endorse a Republican in the 2012 presidential race. He noted the race field is strong and the legislature rejected a 2012 presidential primary due to cost. He will observe February voting under new voter ID rules and will monitor polling place operations as a test ahead of the August and November 2012 elections.
