2 Former Kansas GOP Governors Endorse Democrat Adam Hamilton
The endorsements reflect growing Republican unease as polls show a tight race and Hamilton gains crossover support.
- On Friday, former Republican Governor Mike Hayden endorsed Democratic Senate nominee Adam Hamilton, becoming the second former GOP governor to support him against Republican Senator Roger Marshall.
- Hayden wrote that Marshall "is failing to live up to that standard," criticizing the senator for prioritizing party politics over Kansans and supporting President Donald Trump's "chaotic tariffs."
- Hamilton's experience as pastor of the largest United Methodist church prepares him to unite Republicans, Democrats, and Independents, with Hayden noting his focus on common ground is needed in Washington.
- In response, Marshall claimed Hamilton is a "radical Democrat" whose sermons align with the Democratic Party platform, as recent polling shows the race narrowing significantly.
- The public split among Kansas Republicans reflects growing GOP anxiety about potential midterm losses in deep-red states, with the Senate contest remaining highly competitive based on recent polling.
