KS House of Representatives

The Johnson County Public Policy Council has distributed surveys to all candidates. If a candidate returned a completed survey to the Johnson County Public Policy Council before the stated deadline, it is linked below their name as Candidate Survey.

In some contests, the Johnson County Public Policy Council chose to record candidate forums or video interviews. All candidates involved in those selected races were invited to participate. Those videos are linked below the candidate’s name, labeled as Candidate Forum or Candidate Interview.
