Governor's Race Too Close to Call

 

Governor Laura Kelly has a slim lead to retain the Governor’s seat in the early morning hours.  Kelly, a Democrat has a 40% to 47% lead over Republican Derek Schmidt of Montgomery County.  In early returns Kelly had a commanding lead but as more and more precincts across the state reported, that margin continued to shrink to just a 17,363 vote margin with 158 prcincts across the state still uncounted.

 

In other statewide races Kansas Senator Jerry Moran easily retained his seat with a resounding victory over Democratic challenger Mark Holland.  U.S. Representatives Tracy Mann, Jake LaTurner, Ron Estes and Sharice Davids all retained their seats in Congress.

 

Republican Secretary of State, Scott Schwab defeated Democrat Jeanna Repass.  Republican Vicki Schmidt defeated Democrat Kiel Corkran for Insurance Commissioner.  And the Constitutional Amendment to give the State Legislature oversight over rules and regulations imposed by state agencies was defeated while the Amendment to elect and recall sheriffs passed.
