The state as a whole is still pretty republican. I live in Lawrence, which is the home of the University of Kansas and so is legitimately a liberal hellhole. We pay a LOT to make homeless people comfortable, and so attract them from several counties around.

Johnson County, which is suburban Kansas City and the most populous county in Kansas, has pretty rigged voting. There are still 4 registered republicans for every 3 registered democrats, but every race from the national races down to state representatives give a 10% point advantage to the democratic candidate beyond what you would expect based on the registered voters. I know - I've paid $50 for the voter rolls there - twice.
