Policy positions and campaign money
None of the five candidates has a documented policy position in the official race entries. That means the entries do not establish where Mann, Mcroberts, Musser, Reinhold or Jacob stands on specific issues.
The entries also list no fundraising total, spending total or cash-on-hand figure for any candidate. There is therefore no official dollar figure here for comparing how much the five campaigns have raised, spent or retained.
Party or affiliation labels identify how candidates are listed in the race. Those labels do not, by themselves, state each candidate’s position on legislation or other public issues.
What comes next
The five candidates are running in the Kansas general election scheduled for Nov. 3, 2026. Updates to the official candidate list, documented policy positions and campaign finance figures would add more detail about the contest as Election Day approaches.
Official result reporting after the election will determine the outcome. Until then, the established facts are the election date, the five-candidate field, each candidate’s listed affiliation and Mann’s status as the incumbent.
