8. A few clarifications

hfojvt - didn't mean to offend or exclude you but I mentioned Tevis in the context of the 3rd district (which is where he should have run last time since that's where he lives) but also added the adjective *wildcard* since he might be able to stir some interest/controversy but you don't know what you would get with him. As I understand it, he had a non-campaign campaign the last time.

Although Josh Svaty is from out west, I believe he stayed in Topeka. At least white pages and votebuilder have him listed at a Topeka address.

Regarding our supposed "candidates", here's what I know:

The person declared in the 2nd, Scott Barnhart, is not a real Democrat. He ran in the Republican primary in Kansas House District 10 (Baldwin City area) in 2010 but has now mysteriously become a Democrat. He's a decoy or a plant.

The person in the 3rd district is a mystery. No one I've talked to in JoCo Dems knows who he is. I know from a people search he's 80 years old and lives in OP. Seems like he may be a decoy or plant as well.
