Margie Wakefield, candidate for the Kansas 2nd Congressional District seat, was in Iola Thursday as part of her three-day, 18-county tour.
Wakefield received a tour of downtown Iola from Iolan Donna Houser. She visited with business owners on the square and learned about the town’s history.
“The political games in Washington are not fun for the voters in eastern Kansas,” Wakefield said. “We need a representative who isn’t fighting the other side for political advantage, but one who will work across the partisan divide to find real solutions for Kansans.”
While in town she cut the ribbon on the Wakefield Allen County office, 104 S. Washington. Wakefield is running against incumbent Lynn Jenkins.
