Issue positions
On July 22, 2020, Horst cast a vote that blocked Governor Laura Kelly's order, precipitated by the COVID-19 pandemic, to keep public schools closed until after Labor Day, at such later time as state health authorities believed primary and secondary schools could safely resume classroom education. The tied vote effectively overrode the governor's order. It also drew Horst a primary write-in opponent shortly in a race where she had not face a primary or general election candidate.[5]
