ICYMI: Governor Kelly Discusses Bipartisan Governing
KEY QUOTE: “As a Democrat, I knew I’d only be successful if Kansans believed that I had their best interests at heart – even if they didn’t agree with me on every issue.”
-
I’ve found success by keeping my head down and focusing instead on what others may deride as boring issues: repairing streets, defending public schools, expanding affordable health care, and supporting middle-class families.
-
Too often, politicians act with only the next news cycle in mind. But voters have a much longer memory than they’re given credit for. In Kansas, I’ve found that people appreciate when their leaders speak frankly about the long-term realities facing our state.
-
My office has heard from people across the state that they appreciate being listened to – despite the fact that many are, and will always be, Republicans.
-
Here in Kansas, I’ve found that gaining voters’ trust is everything – and perhaps more surprising, that it’s possible, regardless of whether you have an R or D next to your name.
