At least not as elected officials. Former Congressman Jim Ryun was narrowly defeated in his comeback attempt, losing the Republican primary to Lynn Jenkins. Former state Attorney General Phil Kline (not to be confused with our Phil Klein), best known for his abortion-related prosecutions, also lost his bid to be nominated for a full term as Johnson County district attorney. Kline narrowly lost a reelection bid as attorney general in 2006 but has been serving as DA since then.
