[27 thousand votes for a guy who had ZERO chance of winning..why do people do that, why do people throw their vote away like that]

yep

[goldstategop]

I don’t see that being made up in rural counties.

[Dr. Sivana]

Beshear

692,164

Bevin

[IrishBrigade]

‘Boy used to be we had conversations here’

unfortunately, those days are long gone...

[cuban leaf]

I know a lot of teachers. They are all conservatives, but they hate Bevin. I was discussing this with some at church. I was trying to explain that Bevin is trying to save the state but they were all in favor of the corrupt ex-governor’s son.

[wilmore]

Just guessing lex and louisville

[wilmore]

Well I voted for Bevin his loss was his on stupid stuff

[RedMonqey]

Ballard, Caldwell and Russell Counties still to report a vote.

Small but conservative counties....

“He did his best to help. If Bevin ultimately loses, the Dem will be very lonely in the capital, because the GOP will control everything else.

Meanwhile in the heart of the Old Confederacy the entire state government will be controlled by baby killing, queer loving Democrat’s, which is lost forever to Republicans.

Andy Beshear Democrat 687,674 49.4%
Matt Bevin* Republican 677,606 48.7%
John Hicks Libertarian 27,414 2.0

1,392,694 votes, 96% reporting (3,524 of 3,659 precincts)

[Olog-hai]

But they have no problem being registered to a party that represents (and has represented for decades) everything they do not believe in.

[goldstategop]

This was a personal vote for many people in a conservative state. This was as personal as it got.

[txhurl]

Matt heads to Admin next...best advisor on KY politics for next year.

[SomeCallMeTim]

May be... I think Bevin’s hard stance against Casino gambling didn’t help either. We HAVE it now... just with ONE COMPANY getting ALL the benefits.

[RedMonqey]

See post 268

[SaveFerris]

Andy Beshear Democrat 689,162 49.3%
Matt Bevin* Republican 680,343 48.7
John Hicks Libertarian 27,482 2.0

1,396,987 votes, 97% reporting (3,533 of 3,659 precincts)

[TianaHighrider]

I still don’t believe that. If they were there to cast one vote, they would have just voted a straight ticket. As a ‘lesson’. You know how spiteful those dems are.

[goldstategop]

Are there 11,000 votes in those counties? Nah

[Boardwalk]

Holy crap!

[goldstategop]

Its over.
