“Congressman Yoder and Governor Brownback are two peas in a pod,” said DCCC Spokesman Tyler Law. “Kevin Yoder’s disastrous agenda has been described as the ‘genesis’ for the education funding crisis in Kansas. But rather than own up to his mistakes, he has wrapped his arms around Governor Brownback. There’s no question that Yoder shares the blame for what’s happening right now in Kansas.”

Poll finds low approval for Brownback and Kansas Legislature, tight race in ‘Big First’
Wyandotte Daily
Gov. Sam Brownback and the Kansas Legislature continue to be unpopular, and the primary race in the 1st Congressional District is in a dead heat, according to a new survey from the Fort Hays State University Docking Institute of Public Affairs.
The polling, sponsored by several Kansas newspapers, shows 77 percent of respondents dissatisfied with Brownback. It’s is the latest in a string of sagging approval numbers for the state’s chief executive, who had 35 to 40 percent approval in Docking Institute data until fall 2014, then dropped below 20 percent.
“Probably the person who has taken the biggest hit over time has been Gov. Sam Brownback,” Pendergast said.
