I had my worries when they found all those votes in Johnson County.
You would assume a GOP stronghold, but you never know with the Never Trumpers.
There are more than a few liberals in Johnson county. I’m surprised by this news. Hope it continues.
Which is to say one of my friends lived over there. I believe he finally admitted to being a Hillary supporter.
Much to my disappointment.
It always has been an interesting mix of voters, mostly conservative, pro-life and pro-family but as boundaries shifted to add new developments South both to the East but definitely to the West, plus as Kansas City, MO schools fell further and further into disfunctional, becoming totally unaccredited finally, liberal voters from southeastern Kansas City, MO moved into Johnson County, bringing their liberal voting ideas with them.
For a time, they mostly added to the numbers of dimocRAT voters but some eventually reregistering as Republicans and now swinging the Pubbies much leftward in their leanings.
Actually, here in most of Kansas, there are three viable political parties: dimocRATs, Republican and Conservative Republican, with the hardest infighting between the GOPe and the GOPconservatives!
The libs definitely put their money into Colyer, knowing that he had never held a statewide election and only was Governor by former Gov. Brownback stepping down early enough to refer to him (Colyer) as the "incumbent Governor!"
Libs desperately wanted to run against him, knowning he'd be a pushover against their candidate and we'd be again stuck with a very liberal dimocRAT woman instead of a true-blue conservative!
