Prairie Band’s dispute with Kansas Lottery won’t see trial before 2028

A potential trial on the disputed size of the Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation’s reservation won’t happen before 2028, according to federal court records. U.S. Magistrate Judge Angel Mitchell issued a scheduling order Nov. 3 for the Prairie Band’s lawsuit against Kansas Lottery executive director Stephen Durrell. The lawsuit involves lottery sales on land, including portions of west Topeka, the Nation is laying claim to via a 1846 treaty. More: Kansas, Prairie Band differ greatly on land treaty meaning in lawsuit The pretrial conference is set for Jan. 25, 2028, and Mitchell’s order establishes other deadlines before and after the conference. A notable deadline involves motions to intervene, which are due Jan. 8. The City of Topeka has considered joining the lawsuit , and the expectation is that others may want to join as well. “The parties anticipate that municipality and county governments in the affected area — the 30-by-30-mile square that the Nation claims as its reservation — as well as perhaps others with interests in this dispute may seek to intervene in this action,” the scheduling order said. “Plaintiff intends to oppose any motions to intervene.” More: July 27 trial set in $2.25M Potawatomi suit against feds The Prairie

Johnson County electing 11 new Democrat lawmakers ends a Republican supermajority

Johnson County voters could send nearly a dozen new Democratic lawmakers to the Kansas House, helping reshape the Legislature and break up a Republican supermajority. Kansas Democrats needed to gain five seats in the House to end the Republican stranglehold on the chamber. They gained those seats and much more in Johnson County. The tidal wave of votes for Democratic candidates in the suburban Kansas City county drove a historic night for the political party, which saw its first candidate elected to the U.S. Senate in nearly a century. The county’s voters flipped 11 of the 20 state legislative seats expected to switch from Republican to Democratic control once vote totals are finalized. Democrats are now expected to hold 25 of the county’s 27 seats in the Kansas House. Several of those races came down to the wire and may not be fully decided until all mail ballots are counted this week. But the outcome shows that Johnson County’s voters practically single-handedly ended the Republican supermajority. The walloping of Republican candidates reflected a motivated electorate. Johnson County saw its second-highest turnout for a midterm election in history, with 62% of registered voters casting ballots. The only midterm with a higher
