Elections are an opportunity for every American to express their will without oppression, and officials in our free and open society have an obligation to be transparent in counting the outcome, allowing ballots in question to be monitored and challenged by both sides. #transparencynow

In the Kansas Senate, voters made a clear choice, not only by electing a super majority of Republican, freedom loving Kansas Senators, but also by taking out the entrenched Minority Leader who carried Laura Kelly’s liberal agenda of statewide mandates and business and school closures. The Senate will continue to be a balanced voice against the big government policies of our Governor and will continue to lead by creating public policy that grows Kansas and honors the principles of limited government and property rights; the very principles that created and sustain our American Dream.
