If you’re just tuning in, polls have closed just over an hour ago in Kansas, where Democrat James Thompson is waging an underdog fight against Republican Ron Estes for control of this deep red open seat. Per the Kansas SoS website, Thompson is enjoying an early lead of 58-41%, but the vast majority of votes are still uncounted. So far, Thompson is overperforming Clinton’s margins in the small rural counties surrounding Wichita (and greatly within the city itself), but it’s far too early – and those counties far too small – to read too deeply into these tea leaves. We wait, with anticipation.
