Republicans put money into Kansas Senate and Gubernatorial races, and new GOP attack ads against Kansas Democrats are deranged. MAGA Sen. Roger Marshall and Gubernatorial Trumper candidate Ty Masterson created attack ads that reach a new low! I think even Donald might be embarrassed.

Kansas GOP Gubernatorial Ads: Jesus Was Transgender?

The Kansas Senate race between GOP Senator Roger Marshall and Democratic candidate Adam Hamilton has made national news. But the Kansas Gubernatorial race is wild! The state elected popular Democratic Gov. Laura Kelly twice, and she fought and won battles against an extreme GOP supermajority.

Democratic candidate for Governor, Cindy Holshcer, is surging in the polls. Holshcer served as a popular state Senator in the Kansas City area before running to replace Gov. Kelly. She understands the issues that matter to voters both rural and urban; Holshcer supports women's rights, healthcare, and education. The 50-something candidate opposes the Trump cost increases, AI data centers, tariffs, and the war in Iran.

Naturally, Republican Ty Masterson is attacking her for...socialism, illegals, California, Transgender. Trump's greatest hits. The best part of the absurd anti-Holshcer ad occurs at 0:16 when they accuse her of saying "JESUS WAS TRANSGENDER!"

Masterson is very shouty. Dig, if you will, a clip from the July Gubernatorial debate in rural Kansas. The Republican candidate for Governor believes that yelling at potential voters will win them over.

It's a bold strategy, Cotton.


Democratic Candidate Hamilton Merged with Kamala, Hillary and AOC

Sen. Roger Marshall keeps digging himself into a hole, leading some to wonder if he's trying to lose his campaign.

Republicans are hitting Hamilton hard; it's tough to pick which ridiculous ad to show you. But the attack below, merging his face with Hillary, Kamala, and AOC? It's like Marshall and his buddies are trying to make Halloween come early. YEEK!
