Kansas Republicans have said they don’t have the votes to redraw the state’s congressional districts this year. Redistricting would have likely targeted the Kansas City-area seat of Rep. Sharice Davids, the state’s only Democrat in Congress.
Even still, Davids, who has represented Johnson and Wyandotte counties in Congress since 2019, isn’t ruling out a run for higher office.
“Until it is very clear that they are not going to do the mid-decade redistricting, I'm going to keep all my options on the table,” Davids told KCUR’s Up To Date.
Davids recently toured cities outside the 3rd District, and has openly entertained a run against Sen. Roger Marshall, a Republican who is up for reelection in November.
Still, Davids emphasized her commitment to her district.
“I'm not taking anything for granted, but I am perfectly happy to continue focusing on the job that I have right now,” Davids said.
Davids joined KCUR’s Up To Date to discuss the recent Supreme Court ruling against President Donald Trump’s tariff policies, and more.
