CMG featuring an interview with Keenen Smith, a businessman and former serviceman in the United States Army, who has declared his candidacy for the 25th District of the Kansas Senate, which encompasses a central portion of Wichita. His campaign is driven by the ambition to create well-paying jobs, fortify the economy, protect the rights of parents in education, and foster a dialogue in Kansas that promotes the state’s prosperity.
Smith has contributed to the community by serving on various boards and participating in the media ministry at his church, Holy Temple Church of God in Christ. He is a proud father to two sons, Keni and Keenen Jr., and a daughter, Keiona Smith.
The 25th District has been represented by Democrat Mary Ware since 2018. Smith, a Republican, may face competition, which would necessitate a primary victory before progressing to the general election in November.
