Democrats, Independents, Republicans, farmers, workers, local leaders, and people who do not always agree on politics are finding common ground in this campaign. In a crowded Democratic primary for U.S. Senate in Kansas, Erik has shown that you can build real support without selling out to PACs or special interests. This campaign is powered by people.

Washington and Topeka should not be in a woman’s bedroom, in her private life, or in her doctor’s office. Medical decisions should be made by women, their families, their doctors, and in accordance with their own values and beliefs — not dictated by politicians far removed from the lives of the people affected.

People ask how a kid from Wyandotte County ends up on stages across Western Kansas with the audacity to run for U.S. Senate. Truth is, I’ve been doing things people said were impossible my whole life. Beating Roger Marshall? That’s not the hard part. Convincing a woman from Long Beach, California to take a chance on a Kansas boy back in 2000… that was the real uphill battle. I told her she was the most beautiful woman I’d ever seen. Asked her to come to Kansas and build a life with me. She s

Each name opens the page’s Vipima page, with its own figures and its link to Meta’s Ad Library.
Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
