Republican Roger Marshall, who represents western Kansas in Congress, announces he’s running for Senate. Both of the state’s current senators and former Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole previously held Marshall’s House seat.

“Nobody is more pro-life or pro-Second Amendment than I am,” Marshall said. “Am I a kinder, gentler voice? Probably. Am I going work across the aisle to solve problems? You bet.”

The safe Republican district’s GOP voters tend to turn out in disproportionately high percentages in primaries, putting Marshall in “a very good spot,” said Bob Beatty, a Washburn University political scientist.Kobach relied on a strong conservative base to win the Republican nomination for governor. He contends that he’ll benefit from the greater voter turnout in a presidential election year and a focus on issues such as immigration.

Marshall, a 59-year-old physician, won his House seat in 2016 by ousting tea party Rep. Tim Huelskamp in the GOP primary. Huelskamp had clashed with House leaders and was stripped of the state’s traditional seat on the Agriculture Committee, which was returned to Marshall.
