I agree with you.

Matt Margolis of PJ Media observes:

There were six statewide elections in Kentucky on Tuesday, and here are the results:

Governor: Democrat +0.4

Attorney General: Republican +15.5

Agriculture Commissioner: Republican +19.6

Auditor: Republican + 14.6

Secretary of State: Republican +4.4

Treasurer: Republican +21.4

Does that look like a state that is turning blue? Or does that look like a state where the GOP candidate was uniquely unpopular? Spoiler alert: According to a Morning Consult poll from last month, Matt Bevin was the second-least popular governor in the country with an approval rating of 34 percent. Yet, Bevin only lost by 0.4 percent. It’s safe to say that Trump’s 11th-hour involvement in the race helped Bevin, just not enough. Yet, the left is deluding themselves into thinking anti-Trumpism has turned the state blue.

It was more of a bleeding of support to the Libertarian by a less than popular Governor more than anything the Democrat did.

Thanks for the info. That helps. It seems maybe the R gov candidate wasn’t the best.

Sure looks fishy.

Big percentages for R wins, for all except Gov??

Unpopular enough to have that many who are voting OVERWHELMINGLY for Rs, to NOT vote for R Gov??

Sum Ting Wong.

PLus, the opponent was the son of a popular democratic former governor, so he had great name recognition.
