Kansas Senate Race Puts 90-Year Democratic Drought in Spotlight
Original: Opinion | Kansas Hasn’t Elected a Democrat to the Senate Since 1932. Adam Hamilton Could Change That.
A New York Times opinion column argues that Adam Hamilton could become the first Democrat elected to the US Senate from Kansas since 1932, ending a drought of more than nine decades. The piece is drawing attention to whether Kansas, a reliably Republican state, might actually flip a Senate seat this cycle.
Why now: A high-profile opinion piece is reviving talk of a possible Democratic upset in a long-red Senate seat.
