On July 25, SurveyUSA released a poll for the U.S. Senate race in Kansas. The results: Republican incumbent Pat Roberts 38%; Democrat Chad Taylor 33%; independent Greg Orman 14%; Libertarian Randall Batson 4%; undecided 11%. See here for more detail.
The Kansas primary is August 5, and both Roberts and Taylor have primary opponents. Nevertheless, they are very likely to be nominated.
Orman has raised approximately $600,000, a higher amount than anyone else running outside the two major parties for Congress this year, except for Marianne Williamson, the California independent for U.S. House who is being kept out of the general election due to the top-two system.
In the Governor’s race, the results are: Democrat Paul Davis 48%; Republican incumbent Sam Brownback 40%; Libertarian Keen Umbehr 5%; undecided 7%.

Would Willimamson have run under the old system? How many signatures would she have required?
When a candidate has over $1,000,000, getting about 10,000 signatures is not a problem.
