Race has become a central line of attack in this bitter and expensive contest. Todd McMurtry has pointed to photos of Confederate flags outside Thomas Massie’s house in 2006. Mr. Massie says that’s nothing compared to his challenger’s tweets that included racist tropes.

One of a handful at most of actual conservatives in Congress. The rest are counterfeiters & war whores.

Because the Establishment want him out.

He had to raise and spend a million. Money that could have been deployed elsewhere.

Well done GOP!

Is he really? He’s a libertarian and I don’t trust him. Remember how much most here loved Amash before he showed his true colors.

But McMurtdy was a psychotic Trump hater as recently as a couple years ago, he thought Trump would attack NK and wanted a COUP to prevent that.

Let’s not celebrate yet.

The opponent is just waiting to see how many votes he will need to steal it. There are already Subaru Outbacks crammed with ballots headed to Kentucky.

With the exception of Louisville and Eastern Ky coal country our county clerks do an honest job. Ballots printed in China will have minimal impact here in Ky in November
