The campaign to decide who will represent District 76 in the Kansas House next term is tinged with intrigue.
As it stands today, incumbent Peggy Mast is out of the race, leaving Jeff Freeman, Le Roy, the lone GOP candidate. He will face Bill Otto, former District 9 representative, running as an independent, and Teresa Briggs, Reading, as a Democrat.
“I feel like I need to stay the course,” Otto, Le Roy, said Monday, as to his change of registration and Mast’s recent announcement of withdrawal.
