I think only one county in Kansas voted for Kerry. It’s a HUGE “red state” state. How/why did they elect a Democrat as Governer?

I really can’t say, I know many in Wichita are brainwashed idiots but that doesn’t explain statewide.

The liberal fools in the NE part of the state, where the majority of the population resides.

Kerry carried Wyandotte county (Kansas City) by almost 2-1, and Douglas county (Lawrence) by a 4-3 ratio. Gore carried the same two counties (but just barely won in Douglas Co.--probably because of Nader siphoning away leftist votes). Kiowa Co., where Greensburg is the county seat, went for Bush by a 5-1 ratio over Kerry, and by almost as wide a margin in 2000.
Kansas was one of Bush's best states--in 2004 he got 736,456 votes there vs. 434,993 for Jean-Francois.

State and national politics are two different things. Dems occassionally win the governorship.

She probably got elected because the Republican Party has imploded. You can thank Southern Democrat George “the Worm” Bush for that.
