From kcstar.com:
Republican Sam Brownback tapped state Senator Jeff Colyer Tuesday as his running mate in his bid to be Kansas’ next governor.
Colyer, an Overland Park surgeon is a conservative Republican who served a term in the state House before joining the Senate in 2009.
The pick defied predictions from some that Brownback would pick a moderate to balance his own conservative credentials, or that he’d pick the leader of a Kansas business. Brownback said he picked Colyer because of his intelligence, his medical background, his compassion and his dedication to Kansas.
