Kris William Kobach (born March 26, 1966) is the Secretary of State of Kansas, serving since 2011. President Donald Trump appointed Kobach in 2017 as the Vice-chair of the Commission on Voter Integrity.[1][2][3] Kobach is known for his strong opposition to voter fraud.
On June 8, Kobach announced his candidacy in the 2018 Kansas gubernatorial race.[4][5] The Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law filed a complaint alleging that Kobach violated the Hatch Act, accusing him of using his position as a federal employee (as the vice chairman of the Commission) to promote his current campaign for governor of Kansas, and to solicit campaign contributions.[6][7]
