MAGA Candidate Kris Kobach with a narrow lead with 12% to be counted in the Kansas Gubernatorial Republican Primary.
Now 116,285 to 115,602, Kobach leading by 683.
Is this winner take all no runoff right?
Yes, no runoff although I’m not sure how close before a recount so we may see that if it stays this close.

Conservative State Rep. John Whitmer narrowly ousted by RINO JC Moore. Moore was backed by RINO ex-Governors Bill Graves and Mike Hayden.
Major problems with Johnson county’s new voting machines, less than half the county in.
I noticed that on the SOS website where Johnson County was the only county not completely in yet. Thanks for the heads up.

What kind of machines, do you know?
Kris Kobach 118,591 40.7%
Jeff Colyer* 118,058 40.5
93% in
Koback with 533 vote lead
KOBACH
260 precincts in Johnson County yet to report.
Colyer already is ahead 4,000 there......
I was worried about this when I saw Johnson County was the only county left. Fingers still crossed.

Brand new touch screens, they leave a paper copy of the ballot.

It’s not looking good on that.
He’s running 36% vs. 44% on the 242 that have reported.
Unless they’re very small. Kobach can lose just 2 votes on average per remaining district.

Should be an easy victory for either one but our local medias will find a way to keep it close, unfortunately.
CGato
Not really sure unless they figure the (cough, cough) Independent Greg Orman will take more votes away from Kobach than Colyer.
Orman also ran as an Independent in the last Senate race against Pat Roberts. Orman is really a liberal democrat weasel who is probably only in this race to help make it close either way.
CGato
People should not be fooled by hoaxes like those “independent” candidates
I’ve seen the liberal TV stations out of KC.
They must be all Johnson County liberals. At least that’s my guess.
You would think people learned when he tried to pull that carp during the senate race. Orman has been running ads already for some time, with that :”tired of Republicans, tired of democrats,” BS. I just hope he wastes his money.
CGato
Yeah, it’s discouraging this race comes down to the people in Johnson County, with many liberals there, but maybe they’ll surprise us.
CG
For you Kansans out there, is it likely that the delay in counting Johnson County votes is due to voter fraud?
