(36,926 posts)Voters went with ideological purity, were helped by some serious electoral fraud, and got themselves the biggest economic disaster in KS history. I do believe the pendulum is going to swing toward the left in KS.

No damn way that a Democrat, let alone one named Clinton could ever win Kansas.
Not for a few more Decades.
I would be more inclined to think that she would have a better chance winning Missouri which this map has leaning red.
I might believe it if it was someone with higher likeable numbers.
