Rep.  Kevin Yoder (R-KS) is trying to undercut the idea that his Democratic opponent, Sharice Davids (D), is better suited to hold President Trump accountable than him, arguing that Davids technically worked for the Trump administration, the Kansas City Star reports.

“Davids worked at the Department of Transportation after being selected as part of the final class of White House fellows under Obama, but Yoder noted that her fellowship continued into the first year of Trump’s presidency.”

Said Yoder: “What is it in her track record that tells us she would actually stand up to President Trump when she worked for him? She worked for the agenda. I just think it seems to be a pretty weak promise… when she already had a chance to do it and she didn’t.”

Sharice Davids (D) outraised Rep. Kevin Yoder (R-KS) by more than $1.6 million over the past three months, “a strong sign of Democratic enthusiasm in a race that could determine which party controls the U.S. House of Representatives,” McClatchy reports.

Davids is Kansas’s first openly gay, Native American nominee for Congress.

The National Republican Congressional Committee has pulled more than $1 million in advertising support from Rep. Kevin Yoder’s (R-KS) re-election campaign in the Kansas 3rd District, according to The Hill.

A new Public Policy Polling survey in the Kansas third congressional district finds Brent Welder (D) leading Rep. Kevin Yoder (R-KS) by seven points, 49% to 42%.
