Meanwhile, at least one Republican seemed a bit unnerved by the party switches.

Chapman Republican Greg W. McLaughlin, who's also vying to fill the seat of Rep. Shari Weber, who is not running this time, said he's wary of those who have changed their affiliations from Republican to Democrat.

"I'm wondering what's going on in Kansas when you have people who have been Republicans for a long time switching to run for election," McLaughlin. "It makes me nervous."

Former Republicans seeking office as Democrats:

1) Mark Parkinson, former Kansas Republican Party Chairman and Republican legislator, who is running for lt. governor

2) Paul Morrison, current Johnson County district attorney, running for attorney general

3) Steve Lukert, seeking re-election in the 62nd House district

4) Cindy Neighbor, former Republican legislator running to again represent the 18th House district

5) Duane Mathes, current Edwards county commissioner, running in the 117th House district

6) Judy Leyerzapf, current Abilene city commissioner, running in the 68th House District

7)Kent Goyen, running in the 114th House District; and

8)Walt Chappell, running in the 91st House District.

9) Brenton Weeks, running in the 29th House District
