Citizens of the 4th Congressional District in Kansas have a unique opportunity to participate in a special election on Tuesday, April 11. To prepare our members to make an informed vote, we will be hosting the candidates for the open seat at a Congressional Candidate Mixer on March 21 at Central Standard Brewing. All three candidates have been invited to attend this event designed to help you get to know each of the individuals running for office.

Doors will open at 5 p.m. Candidates will have the opportunity to make brief remarks (~5 minutes each) at 6 p.m., and the venue will remain open until at least 7:30 p.m. for additional time for our members and guests to have one-on-one conversations with the candidates and their campaign representatives.

Candidates for the Kansas 4th Congressional District seat
