Jefferson County alone can't outvote the rest of the state. Looking at the 2007 and 2011 results, way too many rural counties approve of this crap (please note the colors are the proper Red=Democrat/Blue=Republican, not the media newspeak post-2000 propaganda/switcheroo).
2007, Fletcher vs. Beshear
2011, Beshear vs. Williams
This is what the state is capable of in statewide races, the 2003 victory of Dr. Fletcher...
...And the 2012 repudiation of Zero.
