Here are some odds and ends from the Kansas AFL-CIO meeting Friday: Gov. Mark Parkinson, a Democrat, told the crowd that Democrats face a tough election. “I know people are saying this is a lost cause. We still have a good shot.” Democratic gubernatorial candidate Tom Holland got his biggest applause when he said that if elected, “I will not allow the state Chamber (of Commerce) to weaken the worker’s compensation law.” Holland, a state senator, faces Republican Sam Brownback, now a U.S. senator.
