This year's race for Kansas governor hasn’t lacked for action or hyperbole. Dozens of forums have given the candidates opportunities to sometimes say things that are misleading or downright wrong. Jim McLean convened two of his Kansas News Service colleagues -- Celia Llopis-Jepsen and Stephan Bisaha -- to set the record straight. The group begins its discussion by talking about one of the front runners in the GOP race, Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach.
