The people of Kansas made their voices heard, and I’m deeply honored by the trust Kansans placed in me to serve as your next governor. Whether I earned your vote or not, I will work for you. Throughout this campaign, I heard from people who want their leaders to put politics aside and work together to deliver on the things that matter most: strong public schools, lower costs for our families and farmers, and an economy where every Kansan can get ahead. I thank Senate President Ty Masterson for his service to our state and congratulate him on running a hard-fought campaign. In the days ahead, I look forward to working closely with Governor Laura Kelly to ensure a smooth transition and build on the progress our state has made. Now, we move forward - together.

AP calls Missouri Amendment 5. With 16% reporting NO 83.7% YES 16.3%. So by 8:15 initiative petition changes and eliminating the state income tax both go down hard.

Please don't fall for the "it is democratic to elect judges" line. Kansas uses a merit selection process where every potential judge is absolutely grilled in interview, & research is done to determine qualifications & temperament for the bench. Keep PAC $ out of Kansas courts!
