I read some of the articles and the basis of their evidence that some of the Democrats down ballot had higher vote totals and margins than the Jack Conway, the Democrat candidate did vs. Republican Matt Bevin, and that this just doesn't happen. That's ridiculous on face. The only Democrats that won were those with extraordinarily high name ID vs. their opponents (Alison Lundergan Grimes and Andy Beshear), and still barely won. However, you will clearly see the total absurdity of their "evidence" if you look at the full vote results:

Governor / Lt. Governor:
Matt BEVIN / Jenean HAMPTON (REP) 511,363 52.53%
Jack CONWAY / Sannie OVERLY (DEM) 426,599 43.82%
Drew CURTIS / Heather CURTIS (IND) 35,596 3.66%

Secretary of State:
Stephen L. KNIPPER (REP) 470,881 48.84%
Alison Lundergan GRIMES (DEM) 493,184 51.16%

Attorney General:
Whitney H. WESTERFIELD (REP) 477,353 49.89%
Andy BESHEAR (DEM) 479,546 50.11%

State Auditor:
Mike HARMON (REP) 486,266 51.94%
Adam H. EDELEN (DEM) 449,941 48.06%

State Treasurer:
Allison BALL (REP) 571,898 60.64%
Rick NELSON (DEM) 371,209 39.36%

Commissioner of Agriculture:
Ryan F. QUARLES (REP) 562,996 60.08%
Jean-Marie LAWSON SPANN (DEM) 374,061 39.92%

Now again - their evidence that the election was rigged was because in two of the down ballot races, the Democrat candidates performed better than Conway, and down ballot candidates performing better than their counter part at the top of the ticket is, according to them, virtually impossible, ergo, the election is obviously rigged for governor. You see the races they conveniently leave out of their "analysis."

Of course it was rigged to elect Bevin, the Governorship belongs to the Democrats.

The only was to wrest it from them is by stealth, certainly not by having a better candidate.

LOL!

Rush is loving this.

[[Laugh Alert: Liberals claim GOP cheated to rig election for Bevin]]

I can’t even imagine the whine-fest that will take place when democrats are voted out all over the country come midterm elections again, or when cclinton loses-

Maybe I’ll attend a disgruntled valley girl convention that day just to get some relief from the whining

Did GOP Insiders Steal the Kentucky Governor's Race for Tea Partier Matt Bevin?

You know they didn't because there's no way GOP insiders would ever do anything to help a Tea Partier get elected.

Republicans steal elections; Democrats win them.

The wide margin of Bevin’s victory is proof it wasn’t rigged.

Democrats are such sore losers.

Bevin most likely required 55% or better of the true vote to break even in the vote count.

The Dems have a model that knows how each demographic group will vote. How Blacks, women, union members, gays, and other oppressed groups, and white men will vote.

Their models are more true than reality as reality fails to see the importance of the data.

I guess it could have been Democrat rigged or Bevin would have had a larger percentage of the vote. That would be the more likely scenario if any vote/election rigging went on.

What was the turnout?

What percentage of voters were registered republican?

I hope we are still laughing on this day a year from now and again four years after that. I have my doubts and fears though.

Why did Kentucky elect their dolt senators?

Of course it was rigged. Bevin convinced voters he was the better candidate and they voted for him. That right there is cheating in the minds of most Democrats. Maybe they believed their own propaganda?

A fair election is one liberals win. An unfair election is one they lose.

Perhaps these Democrats would like to join the Conservatives in fighting vote fraud by supporting voter ID, purging voter rolls of the dead and departed, etc.?

They apparently forgot to rig a couple of the other statewide races. Sloppy, sloppy, sloppy!

Yeah, they cheated. Didn’t allow illegal invaders or dead people to vote!

They are going to investigate us. I just hope we have all our ducks in a row and not one wiff of anything questionable.

This election should be a feather in the caps of those who celebrate Thanksgiving. Why? Because Thanksgiving is a holiday that blatantly celebrates the repudiation of collectivism in all its forms. If you did not know this watch these videos.

LOL! Of course they were cheated. We just can’t tell them how because we would have to kill them. It shows how compassionate we are by the fact that they are still alive.

EVERYBODY (on our side) KNOWS -

All you have to remember is that if you went to one of the Philadelphia Democrat precinct polling places on voting day, set up a video camera and filmed the entrance in order to compare the people going in with the vote totals, that the Democrat Department of “Justice” would charge you with more felonies than Hillary or Lerner committed put together.

They’re just pissed off that they didn’t do enough to rig it for themselves. Bevin’s REAL vote count was probably even higher.
