Samurai Sanders posted:I'm confused, what is this election and why is it significant? It's the special election to replace Mike Pompeo, who won the district by +30% It's an incredibly and heavily Republican district, to the point that the DNC has committed $0 of funding to Thompson's campaign If Thompson comes close, let alone wins, it's a huge signal to the Republicans that Trump is incredibly toxic. This is muddled a little bit by Thompson running against Brownback (who is loving up the state so badly that the Republicans are revolting against him) and not specifically Trump.

FAUXTON posted:Yeah I'll be the mealy-mouthed milkdrinker here and say there's a good chance a lot of Thompson's support comes from the fact that Kansans have kind of had it with Brownback and his crew. Electoral remorse probably drives a not-insignificant part of it but Kansas is uniquely hosed due to the actions of one Sam Brownback and it's become increasingly evident that the voters are aware of who their enemy is. Yeah once they started going after public school funding things went south for them pretty drat fast.

So do we think there's a good chance that republicans in the house and senate start distancing themselves from trump if Kansas goes blue or purple?
