Adam Hamilton, a Democrat and megachurch pastor, has won the Kansas Senate primary. He will face incumbent Sen. Roger Marshall, a Republican, in the general election.
Primary Results
Hamilton emerged victorious in an 11-way primary, with a significant amount of money raised for his campaign. He has raised over $4.1 million since launching his campaign in February.
Sen. Marshall, who is seeking a second term, has raised over $6.2 million during this cycle. Despite being a strong incumbent, Marshall is not taking his re-election for granted, especially given the amount of money flowing into the state.
General Election
Marshall has already begun to criticize Hamilton, calling him a ‘woke, big megachurch pastor’ who is ‘too woke for Kansas.’ Hamilton’s campaign has focused on his experience as a pastor and his ability to bring people together.
Kansas has not sent a Democrat to the Senate in nearly a century, but Hamilton’s campaign is hoping to change that. National Republicans are not focusing heavily on Kansas, as they have more vulnerable incumbents in other states.
