The move means no official backing from the party’s voter guides, social media, or website. While leadership says they’re prioritizing voters’ best chance against well-funded incumbent Roger Marshall, the candidates fiercely disagree, calling the decision a betrayal of their volunteers and efforts. Others in the race have also received similar notices, sparking debate over fairness and whether the party is truly listening to its base.
