Kansas Republicans are meeting Feb. 9 and Democrats are convening two days later to pick their nominees for the congressional seat formerly held by CIA Director Mike Pompeo.
The special GOP convention in the 4th Congressional District will be in Wichita at Friends University and starts at 7 p.m.
Democrats plan to meet at 1 p.m. Feb. 11 at the Sedgwick County Courthouse in Wichita.
In both parties, local activists make the choice.
