Story summary

President Donald Trump on Friday expressed skepticism about Adam Hamilton's promise to be a moderate voice in Congress, as he campaigns for Republican Senator Roger Marshall in the upcoming Kansas Senate election. Kansas traditionally favors Republicans but recently elected a Democratic governor. In his latest bid for reelection, Marshall is facing stiff competition from Hamilton, who now leads in polls by 4 points, which is seen as a surprising development given Marshall’s previous double-digit wins.
