Kobach is a low vicious lying racist. A stinking piece of dog crap. With his views on abortion, given yesterday’s votes, he’s already toast. And what a sleazy liar he is: He would never act in the interest of “all Kansans.” He is a Trumpscum through and through. Pure evil racist homophobic scum.

Considering the GQP didn’t want him to run because he’s expected to be a weak candidate in the general election, I’d say this turned out the best way possible.

Won’t this turd ever go away?
Kobach came to Arizona and with Russell Pearce who was a goober in state government here they wrote SB1070 …our famous “Papers please” law that required aliens to carry documentation at all times. It was used by Sheriff Joe Arpiao to take his people to Hispanic neighborhoods and hassle folks innocently walking ion the street, doing their yard work or just sitting on the porch and demand documentation. Even though many are and were citizens. American citizens got driven to Nogales, Sonora (the border) and sent across the border simply for not having their wallet on them. Kobach was seen as a carpet bagger and got sent back to Kansas. Russell Pearce who represented Mesa (a Phoenix suburb) in our state legislature got recalled and lost his job. And Mesa is seriously red.

What is it with Republicans resurrecting these anti-American rejects and reprobates?

Did Kobach ever rehab his law license by completing the “Legal Practice for Dummies” course like he was ordered to do?

Seem to recall he was being an ass about it and dragging his feet and generally being a petulant child …and avoiding doing his assignment.

This creep should never, ever be elected to public office again. He is a despicable liar who probably should have lost his law license.

I sure hope his Dem opponent leans heavily on Kobach’s performance in that voting rights case a few years back, since that showed that Kobach is a totally incompetent courtroom lawyer.

ETA:Not sure why CNN doesn’t include unopposed races, but there were unopposed dems for Kansas SOS and AG.

“While I was not the choice of the political establishment, I will be an attorney general for all Kansans.”

Kris Kobach is exactly the kind of cray cray GOPer who actually can lose in Kansas.

I get the feeling he was promised an office at some point for some act of sycophancy or other, but the stubborn voters keep getting in the way.
