WASHINGTON _ During a global pandemic, Kansas voters will have a choice between two doctors offering competing remedies for the current crisis and the health care system as a whole.
In the race for Kansas' open U.S. Senate seat, U.S. Rep. Roger Marshall, a Great Bend Republican and OB-GYN, faces state Sen. Barbara Bollier, a Mission Hills Democrat who spent more than two decades as an anesthesiologist before shifting to politics.
Both are graduates of the University of Kansas School of Medicine who began their careers in the 1980s. Both routinely tout their medical credentials to voters. Marshall even unsuccessfully sought to be called "Doc" on the primary ballot.
