## Resource

Kansas governor’s race heats up as Republican Ty Masterson surges ahead of Democrat Cindy Holscher in a new poll, 50.8% to 43.5%, with the economy dominating voters’ concerns. National GOP eyes Kansas as a key swing state, pouring cash into ads targeting Holscher, while Masterson’s team touts tax cuts and follow-through. Both candidates are positioning themselves as moderate, appealing to undecideds. The Senate race remains tight, and both gubernatorial contenders face mixed public opinions.
