President Trump endorses Ty Masterson in crowded Kansas Republican governor primary – KMBC
President Donald Trump has thrown his support behind a candidate in the packed Kansas Republican primary for governor.
Trump on Sunday afternoon endorsed current Kansas Senate President Ty Masterson.
Masterson has been president of the Kansas Senate since 2021.
“It is my Great Honor to endorse Ty Masterson, a fantastic Candidate running to be the next Governor of the Great State of Kansas, a place I love and WON BIG in 2016, 2020, and 2024! Ty will run on the Republican “ticket” with my friend, the Great U.S. Senator Roger Marshall, who, along with many America First Patriots in Kansas, strongly believe in him,” Trump said on Truth Social.
Masterson is one of several candidates in the field that includes current Kansas Secretary of State Scott Schwab and former Kansas Gov. Jeff Colyer.
“Proud to have President Trump’s endorsement. Kansas needs a conservative who will fight and win — and that’s exactly what we’re going to do,” Masterson said on social media.
Trump’s endorsement record in Republican primaries includes a history of success, most recently last week when current U.S. Rep. Thomas Massie lost in Kentucky.
