Policy positions
No documented policy positions are on file for Murray or any other candidate in the race. That means the official records listed here do not establish where the candidates stand on specific federal issues.
A candidate’s party label identifies the party under which that person is running. It does not, by itself, establish a position on any particular issue. Policy comparisons will depend on documented positions from the candidates as the election process continues.
Campaign finance and election date
No funds-raised, spending or cash-on-hand figures are on file for any of the 12 candidates. Without those figures, the candidates’ campaign finances cannot yet be compared.
The election listed here is the Kansas general election on Nov. 3, 2026. The race is contested, meaning voters will have more than one candidate to consider for the U.S. Senate seat. Candidate records, documented policy positions and campaign finance figures are the key items to follow before Election Day.
