TO: CLUB FOR GROWTH PAC FROM: BRYON ALLEN SUBJECT: KANSAS SENATE DATA DATE: JUNE 12, 2019 A recent WPA Intelligence Kansas Senate poll conducted for Club for Growth PAC shows that, if Mike Pompeo does not run for U.S. Senate, Matt Schlapp’s strong record of conservative activism and support for President Trump’s priorities would give him a compelling narrative with primary voters and could make him the conservative choice in the Republican primary for U.S. Senate. If Pompeo doesn’t run, Schlapp’s bio would give him a big advantage over establishment Congressman Roger Marshall and allow him to capture the conservative vote in the Republican primary. Schlapp’s narrative is much more compelling to Kansas Republican primary voters than Marshall’s. We read voters the following bios of Matt Schlapp and Roger Marshall in a hypothetical head-to-head match-up. Matt Schlapp is a native Kansan, leading conservative voice, and Fox News political commentator. Schlapp is one of the strongest defenders of President Trump and his wife is a senior Trump aide. Schlapp is a conservative lobbyist who has defended President Trump from the politically-motivated Mueller investigation, advocated for Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation to the Supreme Court, and backed President Trump’s efforts to secure the border. Roger Marshall is a Congressman and OB-Gyn who delivered more than five thousand babies in Western Kansas over 25 years. Marshall was elected to Congress in 2016 and serves on the House Agriculture Committee where he helped write a Farm Bill that protects crop insurance. In addition to his work on agriculture, Marshall voted to jump start the economy by rolling back regulations and voted to pass the tax cut bill. Primary voters preferred Schlapp to Marshall by an eight point margin.
