Secretary of State Kris Kobach leads the Kansas Republican gubernatorial primary by 191 votes out of more than 311,000 cast with all precincts reporting, after President Donald Trump gave him a late endorsement over Gov. Jeff Colyer.

Kobach has 40.6 percent of the Republican primary vote to 40.5 percent for Colyer, with provisional ballots still outstanding. Kansas does not have an automatic recount procedure for primaries, but Colyer could request a recount.

Colyer, the former lieutenant governor, took the top job earlier this year after former Gov. Sam Brownback joined the Trump administration. But the president has a closer relationship with Kobach, a polarizing figure in Kansas and elsewhere after years of clashes on voting rights and immigration. Trump endorsed Kobach via Tweet on Monday, going against the advice of White House aides.

The Republican primary winner will face Democrat Laura Kelly, a state senator, in the general election.
