What are they selling to, or doing for the people that keeps them in office? Your senate has 31 Rep senators to 9 Democratic Senators. Kansas House of Representatives has 85 Republicans to 40 Democrats.

Surely if the state is going downhill the people have no one to blame except for the Republicans. So why do they continue to vote for them?
