Attorney General — Kansas

What this office is
The Attorney General of Kansas is the state’s lawyer. One office. The whole state. The term is four years. The next regular election is Tuesday, November 3, 2026. Confirm the clock, and the Attorney General of record, on official Kansas sites. This office has no term limit — that is a clock fact, not a crown.
This is not the Governor. The Governor file lives at Governor of Kansas. This is not a United States Attorney. This is not a county attorney. This office is the lawyer for Kansas.
Topeka is the capital, in Shawnee County, under the copper dome. Wichita is the largest city. Wichita is not the capital. One hundred five counties hire the same Attorney General — the Flint Hills, the wheat counties, the high plains, Kansas City, Kansas, and the river towns included.

How the job fits this community
The inbox is a state inbox: a capital file from Topeka that is not Wichita, a Flint Hills ranch-and-range file, a wheat-county consumer file that is not Shawnee County, a high-plains file out toward Colorado, and a public-integrity file that never makes a Wichita broadcast.
Staff who only know Wichita, or only know Topeka as the whole state, are not doing the job. Missouri is a different state. Nebraska is a different state. Colorado is a different state. Oklahoma is a different state. The Kansas City, Kansas file remains Kansas — it is not Missouri.
What the job entails
- Represent the state. Not a legislator. Not the Governor.
- Opinions where Kansas law actually gives them.
- Civil and criminal matters the constitution and statutes actually assign — not every county attorney’s case.
- Consumer and public-integrity files that are state files.
- Two homes. Topeka for the job. The rest of the state for the people who hired the office.
