Johnson County celebrities appearing on Big Slick this weekend
Several celebrity guests from the Kansas City metro area — including some from Johnson County — will make appearances at the Big Slick Virtually Talented Show set for Saturday night.
The list includes hometown hosts Rob Riggle, an SM South grad, and David Koechner, as well as Kansas City Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce, who will join in on the annual fundraiser for Children’s Mercy.
Riggle and Koechner — as well as Paul Rudd and Jason Sudeikis, both SM West grads, as well as Eric Stonestreet — normally host the annual celebrity softball game, bowling tourney and giant auction. But because of the pandemic, the event will be online, streaming at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, June 12, on Youtube.com/BigSlickKC and Facebook.com/BigSlickKC.
Riggle and Koechner will also appear on the third hour of NBC’s “Today” show at 9 a.m. Friday, interviewed by Big Slick alum Al Roker. [Kansas City Chiefs Mahomes, Kelce join Big Slick show; look for hosts on NBC ‘Today’ — The Kansas City Star]
Former Kansas Gov. Jeff Colyer upset after JoCo Election Office accidentally leaked personal information
Former Kansas Gov. Jeff Colyer, who is running for governor in 2022, says the Johnson County Election Office “isn’t doing enough to protect him after accidentally” leaking his Social Security number, The Kansas City Star reports.
“If they will do it to a former governor, they can do it to any Kansan,” Colyer told The Associated Press in an email.
The election office accidentally released the number to a political research firm, Percipient Strategies, in spring 2021, the Star reports. Percipient specifically requested Colyer’s voter records on April 12 for unknown reasons.
The election office told the firm to delete Colyer’s information, though Colyer’s lawyers were not satisfied with the firm’s email confirmation that the data was deleted.
