Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt won the Republican primary race for governor in his state on Tuesday and will now compete in the general election against incumbent Democrat Gov. Laura Kelly.
. Kelly, too, easily won her primary with 94 percent of the vote and 92 percent of precincts reporting, per theSchmidt, a native Kansan who has served as attorney general since 2011, thanked his supporters in a statement after his victory, saying it is an “honor to join the ranks of those few Kansans who have had the privilege of carrying the nomination” and that he is “humbled and mindful of the trust” that had been placed in him.
Kelly is viewed as one of the Democrat incumbent governors most vulnerable to losing her seat this year. The Kansas Democrat represents a solid red state that Trump won by nearly 15 points in 2020. Both Cook Political Report and Sabato’s Crystal Ball rate the race a “toss-up.”
