DCCC Statement on the Increasingly Crowded Primary in KS-03

Following the announcement that yet another Republican candidate has entered the race in Kansas’ 3rd Congressional District, DCCC spokesperson Courtney Rice released the following statement:

“It seems Republicans are incapable of settling on a recruit to unite behind and take on battle-tested incumbent Sharice Davids. With the entrance of a third candidate in the Republican primary, it’s clear that Kansans are in for a crowded, messy, race to the bottom between the damaging stain of Brownback politics and anti-abortion extremism.

“Their dysfunction and inevitable race to the extremes of their party couldn’t stand in clearer contrast to Rep. Davids who has a proven track record of delivering for her community – whether it’s fighting to lower prescription drug costs or securing funding to rebuild Kansas’ roads and bridges through bipartisan legislation.” 

Reminder: Rep. Davids won KS-03 in 2022 by more than a 12-point margin.
