From wibw.com:
The Republican candidate in the attorney general’s race has earned the backing of a former governor.
Bill Graves announced Wednesday his endorsement of Senate Majority Derek Schmidt for the AG’s post.
Schmidt served as general counsel during Graves’ second term. Graves was Kansas governor from 1995 to 2003. He now heads up the National Trucking Association.
“Derek Schmidt served my office well as legal counsel,” Graves said. “From reviewing pardon applications to crafting executive orders, I relied on Derek’s advice and counsel to carry out my duties as governor. He will make a superb attorney general for Kansas, and it is with great pleasure that I give him my full and unqualified support and encourage Kansans to get out and vote for him.”
