## Resource

Kansas gubernatorial candidates Ty Masterson and Cindy Holscher clashed in a fiery debate, trading personal attacks and sharp policy critiques as they battled over data centers, school vouchers, and immigration. Holscher accused Masterson of being a “no-show job” funded by billionaires, while he defended his record as pro-economic growth, citing Google’s deal. On school choice, Masterson pushed for parental options to tackle literacy, Holscher warned it would hurt public schools. Immigration saw both agree on border security but diverged on solutions—Masterson for legal pathways, Holscher blasting federal inaction. The Chiefs stadium deal also sparked tension, with Masterson backing economic gains and Holscher demanding billionaires pay for their own projects. Their starkly different visions—Masterson’s market-driven growth vs. Holscher’s protection of public resources—set the stage for a pivotal race.
