Kris Kobach with good buddy, Ted Nuget. Let's help send him on permanent tour with his favorite racist rocker.
Big news on the Kansas election front. Thanks in large part to Daily Kos readers, the Kansas City Star reports that Jean Schodorf, the Daily Kos-endorsed Democratic challenger for secretary of state in Kansas had a huge fundraising quarter:
A survey for KSN Television in Wichita found Schodorf and Kobach tied at 45 percent, with the balance undecided.
The poll by SurveyUSA comes a day after new campaign finance reports showed that Schodorf had raised about $80,000 more than Kobach in the last three months.
And where'd those funds come from? They came from YOU:
The national contributions came as a result of an endorsement from the liberal website the Daily Kos, which published stories with a request for donations to be sent to Schodorf, campaign spokesman Marcus Williamson said.
“Nearly all of those small contributions were given online from people who are familiar with Kobach’s national reputation, and wanted to support his opponent,” Williamson said in an email.
The race is tied and we still have work to do. The ground game isn't cheap and we still have a few more days to push Jean Schodorf over the top.
Can you chip in $3 to help elect Daily Kos-endorsed Jean Schodorf and send Kris Kobach back to private practice?
