State Senator Cindy Holscher, a Democrat, won the Kansas governor's race, holding the office for Democrats in a state that has otherwise gone to the GOP in most statewide races. She promised to halt new data centers and overcame a heavy spending push by Republicans behind Ty Masterson, president of the GOP-controlled state Senate. PBS NewsHour and NPR National both reported the result, which extends the Democrats' run of recent wins in the midterm cycle.
