even the justice system can’t find kyler sweeley in hutchinson.

Before Kyler Sweeley was the incumbent, he was the challenger with a residency problem.

In 2024, Reno County Republicans launched an ethics complaint over it. The allegation was straightforward: he didn't live in the district he was running to represent. He resolved it by setting up an address in the district a few days before the candidate filing deadline. He won the seat anyway.

That was 2024. You can read more on that story.

In 2026, Sweeley filed to run again. His candidate filing listed a P.O. Box — not a residential address.

A Shawnee County court, attempting to serve him in a debt collection case for a parking ticket, sent a summons to a Hutchinson address. The house was vacant. A second summons went to his address on file in Newton. The June return noted he had moved approximately “three weeks prior.”

His voter registration was updated to a different Hutchinson address one day after the first summons was issued.

Kyler Sweeley has now raised questions about where he actually lives in two consecutive election cycles. The first time, an ethics challenge didn't stop him.

The question for voters in the 102nd District is whether the second time looks different — and whether it matters that their representative appears to have no fixed address in the district he was elected to serve.

It's also worth knowing who Sweeley spends his time with in Topeka. He is close friends with Rep. Avery Anderson, whose own record of conduct in office is documented separately on this site. In 2025, lobbyists ranked Anderson first among all 165 Kansas legislators in money spent on him. Sweeley ranked fourth.

Birds of a feather.
