According to this story, Greg Orman is taking steps to run for Governor of Kansas as an independent in 2018. In 2014 he was an independent candidate for U.S. Senate, and he polled 42.5% in a race with no Democrat running.
After the 2014 election, he said he probably would have been better off if a Democrat had run, because with no Democrat in the race, his Republican opponent painted him as a Democrat in disguise.
Chad Taylor, the Democrat nominee, withdrew because he certified that he was incapable of fulfilling the duties of the office, and the Democratic Party failed to name a replacement.
Yet another reason that Top 2 is better than segregated partisan primaries.
Looking forward to his campaign!
NONPARTISAN AppV for all elected executive officers and all judges.
Orman is a Democrat in disguise.
