Sharice Davids isn't saying much about KS redistricting. Her fundraising emails are.
WASHINGTON -- On the night Gov. Laura Kelly vetoed the Kansas legislature’s congressional map, the lawmaker most likely to be affected, Rep. Sharice Davids, didn’t have much to say publicly.
“Rep. Davids is focused on her work in Congress to lower costs for Kansas families and represent the people of the Third District, and she supports a fair redistricting process in which all Kansans have their voices heard and heeded,” her campaign spokeswoman, Ellie Turner, said.
It’s a line her campaign has repeated throughout the redistricting process, an attempt to appear above the contentious debate in Topeka, where the legislature narrowly voted on Wednesday to override Kelly’s veto.
The map, which splits Wyandotte County into two different congressional districts roughly along Interstate 70, is likely to face a legal challenge. If it’s upheld, Davids would face a tougher reelection bid in a year where Republicans are favored to win back the U.S. House of Representatives.
