This coming November, citizens in the United States will exercise their most important right by going to the polls and voting for their representatives in government. Like most Kansans, come November, I’ll be voting for the person whom I feel can best represent me and the concerns of my state rather than for a party. I grew up in rural Kansas and have spent most of my life here, so I know that, for the most part, people in Kansas are level-headed and practical and will vote for the people they believe care about Kansas as their representatives at all levels of government. After all, Kansans elected Laura Kelly twice, first as a rejection to the Brownback “experiment” that was so harmful to our state, and then again to say “no” to Chris Kobach, a Brownback acolyte. She’s not been perfect, but she has done an admirable job bringing the state back and putting us on solid footing again.
