Kris Kobach Kansas Secretary of State speech introducing Trump.
I noticed they have a turnout comparison of the GOP 2016 v 2008 at the website. Anyone seem something similar that compares the last four terms, both Repub and Demo? I started compiling my own but its taking longer than I thought.
It was an especially brilliant move for Trump to tell CPAC to stuff it and go do this rally in Wichita this morning, because it was held at the Century II Performing Arts & Convention Center which is also the location for the Kansas GOP Caucus for Sedgwick and two other counties. So he literally had his rally and then sent everyone right over to the other part of the facility to caucus.
Sedgwick County which includes the heavily industrialized Wichita aircraft industry, has a population of over 1/2 million and is the 2nd most populous county in the state.
Another excellent strategic move by Team Trump!
Also, since Kansas is adjacent to and very similar culturally to OK and TX where Cruz won, the fact that he is in IDAHO today may be a sign that he knew it couldn’t win in KS.
