Leaders of the Kickapoo Tribe of Kansas are facing a challenge as the tribe approaches its October 1 council election.
Some tribal members say current council officials are spending too much time touting an off-reservation casino. One council official, a proponent of the casino, has been suspended pending
an investigation into allegations of credit card misuse.
Up for re-election are two council members. Chairman Steve Cadue is not facing re-election.
