An Olathe Republican vying for a seat in the Kansas House of Representatives was arrested Thursday and charged with election perjury.

The complaint filed by the Johnson County district attorney’s office alleges Adam T. Thomas, 35, falsified an affidavit to election officials on or about May 31, 2018.

Election perjury is a felony. Thomas was booked into the Johnson County Jail on a $2,500 bond.

Thomas is running in the 26th District for the seat currently occupied by Frank Trimboli, who is not seeking re-election. He is running against Democrat Deann Mitchell.
