Unaffiliated and other voters could vote also. I was given the choice to ‘stay Unaffiliated’ or register with one of 3 parties. I chose to stay unaffiliated.’ I was given the ‘brown’ ballot. It had only the ‘Value Them Both’ question on it. I had only one slot to choose ‘Yes’ or ‘No.’

The biggest take away from this is the sheer number voting. It’s going to double what a normal primary does. If this happens across the country in November. We’re absolutely done.

You cannot strip away a half century old “right” without consequences. My guess is that the Republican wave is barely going to be a trickle.

They each spent 6 million. I guess one side spent wisely.

A bit outside the margin of cheating, methinks.

Looks like.

I 100 percent agree. We will be lucky to get the house. Some here will continue their delusions. But Kansas numbers are huge!!! The turn out is double for basically one question. Why didn’t the damn Supreme Court wait until February????? Ugh!

Yeah, the language was pretty clear. I had my archbishop tell me how to vote, but I didn’t really need my archbishop to tell me how to vote. It was pretty obvious!

We are in a Pro Life nation at a time when we have finally slayed the monster of abortion. Come November, voters will turn out in solid numbers for Pro Life Republican candidates and will win across the the country.

Abortion is far from slayed.

We only need to win 5, we will do that easily. The Antichrist Media is already trying to bring this referendum to the whole country, but, GOP candidates are still outpoling the Democrats in Kansas.

Let’s face it. The turnout today in Kansas was driven solely by the abortion referendum. People who don’t think the Dobbs decision will motivate people to go to the polls in November may have to think again.

I would have expected Kansans to vote for protections of innocent babies. I guess not.

If we win the house, it will be a miracle. I’m sorry but across the country people who never voted before will vote. In Kansas, they doubled the number voting. That’s not a problem for us?
