Show Up. Compete. Change Kansas.

Our initial plan is to start small and build a foundation for principled moderation, beginning where change is both possible and urgent: the Kansas House of Representatives.

There are 125 House districts in Kansas, each with about 15,000 voters. If we flip just five Republican-held seats in 2026, we end their supermajority.

In 2024, 40 percent of House races went uncontested. That’s not democracy. That’s a system protecting itself. We’re not spoilers when the two parties can’t even be bothered to run against each other. What we see isn’t a spoiler movement. It’s an opening.

The Free State Plan

  • Build a New Party for Moderates

    We’re launching The Free State Party, built for moderate Kansans tired of partisan extremes and one-party rule.

  • Get on the 2026 Ballot

    Our petition drive will formally qualify the party for state and local races in 2026.

  • Offer a Clear, Principled Platform

    Not vague middle-ground mush. We’ve drafted a platform rooted in Kansas values: liberty balanced with fairness, community, responsibility, and fiscal discipline. It’s moderation with a backbone.

  • Compete Where No One Else Will

    We’ll focus on Kansas House districts where incumbents ran unopposed in the last general election and consider statewide and national races where voters lack a real choice.

  • Break the Supermajorities

    Our immediate goal: flip five Republican-held seats to deny the GOP its supermajority and restore balance in Topeka.

  • It’s About Balance, Not Sides

    If we’re targeting Republican seats, it’s because they hold unchecked power right now, not because we’re aligned with Democrats. It’s because one-party rule isn’t good for anyone, whether Republican or Democrat.

  • Build a Statewide Grassroots Movement

    We’re organizing Kansans from every corner of the state who believe in moderation, common sense, and decency in government.

  • Collect Signatures and Support

    When our petition drive begins, we’ll need your signature, your help spreading the word, and your donation to fund this historic effort.

  • Help Make Kansas History

    Change starts with conversation. Tell your friends, neighbors, and family that there’s hope and there is something concrete they can do.
