1. I can't speak for any other states,

but in Kansas the August 1 primary will be for all state-wide offices. Governor, attorney general, the Kansas State House, plus the 4 Congressional districts. Neither of our Senators is up for re-election this year.

Who knows at this point how many of our races will actually have a meaningful primary. But it's an overall primary, not just limited to the governor.
