Because of this, his poor relationship with House Republican leadership and his support for cutting farm subsidies, which cost him the support of the Kansas Farm Bureau and Kansas Livestock Association in 2014, he was thought to be vulnerable to a primary challenge.http://atr.rollcall.com/elections-2016-tim-huelskamp-kansas-primary House Conservative Faces Primary Peril in 2016 Roll Call Alexis Levinson December 9, 2014 December 9, 2014 December 10, 2014 https://web.archive.org/web/20141210141050/http://atr.rollcall.com/elections-2016-tim-huelskamp-kansas-primary/ dead http://www.nationaljournal.com/politics/is-this-lawmaker-too-conservative-for-the-tea-party-20150202 Is This Lawmaker Too Conservative for the Tea Party?
