Following the 2000 Census, the State of Kansas retained its four seats in the U.S. House of Representatives, and the redistricting of Kansas's congressionaldistricts by the state legislature was completed in 2002.
Kansas counties and voting districts were the "building blocks" used for drawing district boundaries, using their population reported in the 2000 U.S. Decennial Census as the basis.
It was suggested that the core of the existing districts should be preserved, and, because of their importance as political or socioeconomic units, whole counties should be in the same district to the extent possible.
