Got to win all 4 to make a tie, no idea. But we oughta win the majority in November regardless.

DJ, I’m sure we’ve talked about it but I don’t remember, what was the timing and circumstance of the last (only?) GOP majority, was it elected in 1919?

It would’ve been tied into the statewide contest in 1919. The prior Democrat Governor had just barely beaten the Republican by a few hundred votes in 1915 (49%). The administration became unpopular with allegations of corruption, and both the Gov and Lt Gov, despite being Dems, were at odds with each other. Gov. Stanley looked for an early out and jumped into the Senate race of 1918, where he barely (again) beat a Republican with just 50%.

He then held off on resigning the Governorship for months until May 1919, and Lt. Gov. James Black ascended, while the Republican Morrow hadn’t stopped running: “Right the wrong of 1915 !” Black got the nomination for the full term, but it was a fiasco going into the fall and he lost by a margin of almost 9% to Morrow, and apparently that helped the GOP downballot.

KY is a big coal state isn't it? I live in PA just north of the WV line. This area has been devastated by hussein's war on coal.

First week of the month you're likely to see an Access card than a bank card at Walmart.
