Andy Beshear, Who Fundraised With Abortionist, Defeats Pro-Life Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin
LIFE NEWS ^ | Nov 6, 2019 | Steven Ertelt

Kentucky voters had a clear choice in the gubernatorial race when it comes to abortion politics today. And in the end the pro-life governor who served women and unborn children so proudly went home in defeat to a Democrat who fundraised with an abortionist.

Republican Gov. Matt Bevin has a strong pro-life record by defending unborn babies and cracking down on abortion businesses for not following the law. His opponent, Democrat Andy Beshear, has a radical pro-abortion stance. As state attorney general, he refused to defend a Kentucky law that protects unborn babies from abortions after 20 weeks.

Voters unfortunately did not reward Bevin’s strong pro-life record by sending him back to the governor’s mansion.

With 99% of the vote counted, Beshear defeated Bevin by a 49-48 percent margin.

Bevin has a strong record of protecting unborn babies and mothers from abortion. He has cracked down on abortion clinics, ensuring that they meet health and safety regulations. In 2016, his administration took legal action against Planned Parenthood after its new Lexington facility began aborting unborn babies without a license. That facility still is prohibited from aborting unborn babies.

As governor, Bevin has signed multiple pro-life laws, including measures to ban abortions after an unborn baby’s heartbeat is detectable, protect unborn babies with Down syndrome from discrimination and protect unborn babies from brutal dismemberment abortions.

Susan B. Anthony List President Marjorie Dannenfelser said Bevin is a pro-life hero, and the Kentucky abortion lobby is trying desperately to unseat him. Her organization is working to inform voters in Kentucky ahead of the election.

In contrast, Beshear has a pro-abortion record and recently participated in a fundraiser with a Kentucky abortionist. In 2017, he refused to defend a Kentucky law that protects unborn babies by banning abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy.

Does any smart person believe that a Democrat wouldn’t create a toll bridge?

I agree with you. I have given much thought to this and the best way to have good government, is to have only MARRIED men qualified to vote. Of course, this will never happen, but it should and it would be fair.

‘Rats are already running with this as turning point in the 2020 election.’

they can run on that silly proposition because the optics of a highly visible off season election that had Trump stumping for the loser are too good for them to pass up...

Didn’t republicans win every other race in KY? YES

Losing Governor races to Democrats becomes a real issue when the Senators are Republicans. If something happens to Paul or McConnell we get a Democrat.

‘Perhaps Our Heavenly Father doesn’t like how depraved our society has become.’

depravity has been a constant in human history since mankind developed a brain capable of committing it; apparently it is hardwired into our beings...

>>>Once again, too many Republicans stayed home. People don’t understand we need turnout to defeat the cheating.<<<

There were more Votes Cast in the Governor’s Race than any other Statewide Elected Office.

Republican Voters turned against him and many gave their Votes to the Libertarian Candidate who ended up being the spoiler by a large margin...

The Libertarian Party Celebrated the fact. Now we are at a standoff with Absentee Ballots and any uncovered Voter Fraud being the things that will decide the Race.

With only 4,500 Votes separating the Candidates out of 1,455,000 Votes Cast, there will most likely be a Recount before Bevin gives it up.

If you think the Republican brand circa 2020 has wide spread appeal the you are sadly mistaken.

Here is the thing...................Democrats have a track record of fraud, and while Republicans hands aren’t always clean, their track record pales in comparison.

If the Republican product was a good, viable alternative for the working class to pick over the loony left then they would beat the crazy left every election. Face it, besides Trump, the GOP(Globalist Old Plutocrats) product is a stinker.

The DEMOCRAT BRAND, not just individuals like the Squad, needs to be attacked:

DEMOCRATS want abortions up to the day of birth
DEMOCRATS will abolish employer provided health insurance
DEMOCRATS want Public education ONLY. No parental choice.
DEMOCRATS will overcrowd schools with illegal immigration
DEMOCRATS want NO Borders and unlimited immigration
DEMOCRATS want FREE healthcare for these same immigrants
DEMOCRATS will kill quality of healthcare by same immigrants
DEMOCRATS want FREE College for these same immigrants
DEMOCRATS want violent felons to vote
DEMOCRATS want to end the Oil, Gas, and Coal industries
DEMOCRATS despise Christians and Christian teaching
DEMOCRATS will raise your taxes and make you poor
DEMOCRATS want 75 TRILLION $ in NEW taxes over next 10 years
DEMOCRATS will confiscate your guns

Please ADD to this list.

Take it to your friends, neighbors, and co-workers.

Well, Ted is finally home, never more to roam. But the damage he has done lives on, long after he is gone. And on the good side, he has went one more day without taking a drink of alcohol.
