JoCo Sheriff and Amanda Adkins-Endorsee Admits to Using Taxpayer Money to Investigate “Baseless” Election Conspiracies

Will Adkins finally speak out against the GOP using taxpayer dollars to undo the will of Kansas voters?

Johnson County Sheriff and Amanda Adkins-endorsee Calvin Hayden admitted to using taxpayer dollars to investigate “baseless” election conspiracy claims – despite there being “no evidence of widespread voter fraud anywhere in Kansas.”

Adkins, who was endorsed by Hayden during her failed 2020 campaign, has refused to condemn dangerous election conspiracies and misinformation, as well as the deadly January 6 insurrection they inspired.

Will Adkins finally speak out against her campaign backer wasting Kansas taxpayer money to investigate “baseless” election conspiracies and undo the will of voters? 

DCCC Spokesperson Johanna Warshaw

“Kansas Republicans are sending a clear message to voters: if they don’t like the outcome of an election, they’ll work to overturn it. It’s on Amanda Adkins to say whether she agrees with her campaign backer that taxpayer dollars should be spent investigating baseless election conspiracy theories in an effort to undo the will of Kansas voters.”
