No, Overland Park does not “tilt pretty far Left” but might lean a bit GOPe!
WV has a closed primary, but an unaffiliated voter is allowed to choose either a D or R or “nonpartisan” ballot. The nonpartisan ballot contains referendum, school board, and judicial races. You can’t mix and match. I understood that this choice is available in KS. I think it sucks.

Yep, not lost. Provisionals are always counted last. They would be provisional because of the date of declaration. Maybe.
That happens a lot. In the last general election, the county had 40 precincts with more ballots turned in than registered voters in the precinct.
The local Democrats won that election of course. And all of the tax increase measures passed by slim margins.
But they say there is no fraud involved...
I am doing my Snoopy dance!

Exactly a week after an election that produced one of the closest races in Kansas history, incumbent Gov. Jeff Colyer conceded the Republican gubernatorial primary to Kris Kobach, the Kansas secretary of state and an anti-immigration hard-liner who has sought to align himself as closely as possible with President Trump and his administration.
Colyer conceded Tuesday night, hours after a tally of provisional ballots in Johnson County, the state’s largest county, failed to close the gap between him and Kobach. Instead, the additional votes swung in his opponent’s favor — Colyer picked up an extra 301 votes, while Kobach added 325 — even though the governor had won his home county overall.

The Democrats believe that they can beat Kobach. Of course, they were certain that Clinton would beat Trump.
Yes. It’s never good to underestimate your opponent but...
Democratic vote total in primary
153,865 votes, 100% reporting (3,539 of 3,539 precincts)
Republican vote total in primary
313,440 votes, 100% reporting (3,539 of 3,539 precincts)
So Kansas & National Republicans need to push for every vote in November but I am optimistic.
