KANSAS (KSNT) – Lifelong Kansan Christie Cauble Davis will challenge incumbent Roger Marshall for U.S. Senate.
On Tuesday, Davis announced the launch of her campaign for U.S. Senate. According to a press release from Davis, she brings decades of public service leadership and is championing solutions for rural healthcare, public education, inflation and immigration.

“I’m running because Kansans deserve a Senator who shows up for for us and represents our values and not his own self-interests,” says Davis. “I’ve spent a lifetime serving this state, working in every one of our 105 counties. Roger Marshall doesn’t represent the Kansas we all know and love—and he’s forgotten the people who sent him to Washington.”
Davis filed a statement of candidacy on Aug. 5. She will run as a Democratic Party candidate.
“The Constitution gives Congress the power to fund programs that help their constituents and the power to hold the Executive Branch to account,” Davis says. “But Senator Marshall spends much of his time defending the Executive Branch’s devastating policies even while Kansans beg him to see the damage being done to our state.”
