1. Sandy Praeger endorses PhilL Kline

Here she is with Kline at the Dg. Co. GOP offices. This photo was taken yesterday.



Don't forget that Praeger also cast the deciding vote for redistricting the congressional districts in Kansas. The redistricting was designed to hurt the Democrats, specifically Rep. Moore (D-3CD). Fortunately for Kansans, her redistricting vote put the 2nd CD in play by annexing west Lawrence (west of Iowa Street). Lawrence is responding this year and there are literally hundreds of Boyda signs in west Lawrence. In 2004 there weren't as many Boyda signs.
