You have a new Lt. Gov that ran with Bevin, too.

Auditor elected is a republican, as well.

These polls are exhibit A on how the Dem run media cooks up pure propaganda polls .
This is intentional screwing of polls by the lib media to suppress the conservative votes.

It did not work ,

It’s either intention or it’s another instance proving the online poll people right, that landline/cell polling leaves to many out.

The Attorney General race is close, and is going to be even closer. With all but one county in, the Dem leads by a bit less than 1200 votes. The county that is out gave McConnell a margin of about 900 in 2014. Either way, it should be in the recount zone—probably a margine of less than 400 either way, less than .05%.

Who is Drew Curtis? From his positions, it looks like he would take more from Conway than Bevin, is that right? If so, Bevin should send him a thank you note.

I’m wrong—the Dem takes the AG race by 2100, a margin of .22%.

Isn’t the KY leg. elected in 2014 and 2016, not 2015?

The only thing we heard in regards to McConnell and Bevin out here was McConnell’s biographer lauding support for Conway.

That and two old rednecks regurgitating McConnell’s attack ads and talking points while waiting for pie or to go fishing.

Be sure to note that the Lt. Gov. Elect is a black woman — the first black person ever elected to state-wide office in Kentucky.

As false as false can be. Virtually everything you say is completely false. What is the point of your comments?

You should have seen it when a reporter on a panel covering the election turned to the Democrat on the panel after there was a discussion about the “diversity” on the Republican stage (the first Latino state Senator introduced the first black statewide office holder to be elected, and Matt Bevin’s family with adopted children from Ethiopia) and said “I don’t mean to put you on the spot, but I don’t believe we’ve seen any people of color of the Democrat stage, have we?” - she was literally at a loss for words - unable to put a sentence together.

There’s another option as well: the KY GOP has a GOTV machine that the polls can’t account for.

What we may be seeing here is the same situation, with the parties reversed, as 2012 where it looked like Romney was going to win.

Obama’s GOTV machine (Catalist, Narwhal) focused on getting people on the left who normally didn’t vote to the polls. Instead of moving to capture moderates/centrists.

We now have back to back years of KY polls massively underpredicting GOP turnout. Good evidence of something happening that the polls are completely unable to capture.
