[SaveFerris]

John Hicks Libertarian 27,448 2.0

[Republican Wildcat]

Raced called:

Secretary of State - Republican Michael Adams wins (Republican GAIN!)

Republicans have swept the down ballot - holding Agriculture Commissioner, Auditor, Treasurer and gaining Attorney General and Secretary of State.

Stunning that Bevin even got close. He was trailing Beshear by 18% in August! Then he ran the trannies-in-girls-sports ads and closed the gap quickly, but there wasn’t enough time. Sad.

[FreeReign]

Yeah, who would only cast ONE vote in this day and age of vote fraud...

Certainly not one or several people in a hurry, stuffing ballots, trying to put Beshear over the top.

[KavMan]

TRUMP won Kentucky by 30%!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Must be something WRONG with Bevin if the damn Election is this closeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[goldstategop]

Democrats who are Republicans? Look at OK.

[SomeCallMeTim]

Yes but they are holding about 25 precincts in Louisville area as reserve

Yep... it's OVER. IF they need more, they'll find them. Sad day for our state. Good night folks. Time to turn out the lights... and, watch the Wildcats

[SaveFerris]

Andy Beshear Democrat 697,836 49.5%
Matt Bevin* Republican 683,874 48.5
John Hicks Libertarian 27,670 2.0

1,409,380 votes, 98% reporting (3,575 of 3,659 precincts)

[TianaHighrider]

That is less than one percent. Doesn’t that require a runoff, recount, or something?

[Dr. Sivana]

Livingston, Marshall still counting votes(Red counties)

Not enough votes left to change the outcome.

[kempster]

Sounds like Trump new what he was when he introduced him last night.

[goldstategop]

A lot of conservatives hated Bevin. Doesn’t mean they’re anti-GOP.

[RedMonqey]

Jefferson STILL has 25 something districts not reporting.

Enough to tilt aLL the outstanding Red county votes.

Dammit!!! Dammit!!! Dammit!!!

[fortheDeclaration]

Some good news!

[Syncro]

Beshear Now leads by just 12073

Thanks.

Looks like the vote fixing is kicking in,

[RedMonqey]

Nope. Not enough....

[SomeCallMeTim]

Republicans have swept the down ballot - holding Agriculture Commissioner, Auditor, Treasurer and gaining Attorney General and Secretary of State.

That IS good news! Candidates matter. Bevin did not do a good job of explaining what he was trying to do, and WHY.
