TOPEKA, Kansas (AP)?? Kansas Republicans have a fuller field of candidates than party leaders had expected for presidential caucuses in March.
State GOP officials were hoping Thursday that the race remains competitive enough to draw some of the hopefuls and national attention to Kansas.
Eight candidates met the Dec. 31 filing deadline for the Kansas caucuses. Kansas GOP officials said they would have been pleased with four or five candidates on the ballot. Kansas will have 40 delegates to the Republican National Convention.
The state GOP scheduled the caucuses for March 10, the Saturday after Super Tuesday. Kansas officials said national Republican Party's rules, which discourage states with early contests from awarding delegates on a winner-takes-all basis, should help prevent the party's nomination from being settled.
