Of course, the fact that Hillary narrowly carried the KS-03 does not mean that the Democrats will have an easy time carrying it; as in other affluent suburban areas, Trump badly underperformed Romney in Johnson County (Overland Park, etc.) and I expect less-populist Republicans to continue to do well there.

True, though Dennis Moore did snag the district in 1996 and held it until he retired in 2010, so it's potentially vulnerable if the wrong Republican is caught napping.

Ugh Moore, so many failed attempts to get rid of that bastard.

Twinkle twinkle Kenneth Starr, no wait, that was the guy in NJ who lost to Rush Holt. What did Vince Snowbarger do wrong? Damn RINOs in that district voted in Moore.

Auh2: “Wyandotte County (Kansas City) should be placed in the sprawling KS-01”

It SHOULD be placed in black hole that no vote can escape from, but KS-1 would do. ;-p

The legislature needs to man up in 2020. I think we’ll need to get rid of some RINOs, sadly a bunch of them beat conservatives in the 2016 primaries, the same people went after and successfully beat Tim Huelskamp.

KS-03 was made a bit more Republican in 2011 redistricting by paring back its portion of Douglas County, but you’re right that a GOP House candidate is not a lock in the district. That being said, I don’t see Yoder losing in the next two cycles, and after that we’ll have redistricting.
