In three separate SurveyUSA 2012 polls (Jan, Feb and April) Gov Sam Brownback's approval poll numbers in Kansas fall below that of Pres Obama.

Are Kansas Republicans worried?

In January 2010, Kansas Republican Party chairwoman Amanda Adkins called then-Gov. Parkinson's 42 percent approval rating in a SurveyUSA poll a profound result delivering a clear message "Kansans oppose the Obama-Pelosi-Parkinson agenda of higher taxes and bigger government."

When Brownback's numbers in a SurveyUSA poll in January 2011 dipped below those of Parkinson, Adkins questioned validity of the company's survey results.

Brownback should be very relieved that the next election for Kansas Governor is not until 2014.

In January 2011, a SurveyUSA poll conducted for KWCH-TV in Wichita showed Brownback's approval rating stood at 55 percent among people registered to vote. The assessment of his job performance fell 19 percentage points during the subsequent year.

The SurveyUSA poll in February indicated Brownback's approval rating was at 34 percent and Obama's at 42 percent.

Edit: I neglected to mention Kansas is one of the reddest of red states. Only one Democratic presidential candidate since the 1936 Presidential election has won Kansas' electoral votes (LBJ in 1964).
