Remember, he too is God's handiwork.
You mean the Doug Jones race from less than 2 years ago?I don't think anybody expects Kentucky to be magically leftist. It's just a major upset in a deep red state, kinda like Doug Jones/Roy Moore here a few years back.
It's a red state and Bevin de-nationalized the race by sucking so bad.Can someone explain to me how all the other Democrats in state races in KY are underperforming Beshear so badly?
Even Republicans hate Bevin.Can someone explain to me how all the other Democrats in state races in KY are underperforming Beshear so badly?
Oh godYou mean the Doug Jones race from less than 2 years ago?
Everything in this timeline feels like it has taken ages.
Can someone explain to me how all the other Democrats in state races in KY are underperforming Beshear so badly?
I think god's going to sit this one out.

"Democrats projected to flip Virginia Senate and House, taking control of state government for the first time in a generation"
Dat blue wave... feels good man
Look for Governors and Senates try to pass laws that limit the incoming Democrats.
I don't believe he did.Moore never did concede, did he?
Wish we could take him up to Huntsville, strap him to a NASA rocket, and shoot him into the sun.

Imagine a person you dislike ran for governor, now image some who killed your mother was the current governor.Can someone explain to me how all the other Democrats in state races in KY are underperforming Beshear so badly?

https://www.washingtonpost.com/elections/election-results/kentucky/ Actually its not, 100% of the votes are in now and its about 5,300 difference. At least that is what this website says.An article on 538 from post-2016 says that the median recount vote change in a statewide election in the last 20 years was about 200, and the largest (Bush v. Gore in Florida) was about 1,200. Beshear's lead over Bevin is over 9,000, so no real fear of a recount.
That's still 4x+ the largest recent recount, and in a presidential (higher turnout) election in a more populous state than Kentucky.https://www.washingtonpost.com/elections/election-results/kentucky/ Actually its not, 100% of the votes are in now and its about 5,300 difference.

So why does Kentucky keep voting these kind of people in? And keeps re-electing McConnell?
Please send good vibes to KY. I expect Beshear will retain his victory even through a recount at a 5000 vote victory, but Bevin is going to be a massive pain in the ass for the next few weeks and I suppose there's still a chance some fuckery could be about in such a process. I would just really like my vote in KY to have mattered this time around.
KY currently has a Democrat as SoS so your vote should be fine.Please send good vibes to KY.

Democrat Andy Beshear leads Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin, a Republican, by a nearly 4,700-vote margin with all precincts reporting in the state — but Bevin is refusing to concede, telling supporters Tuesday night that the race was too close to call.
"This is a close, close race. We are not conceding this race by any stretch," Bevin said, one night after appearing with President Donald Trump at an election-eve rally. "We want the process to be followed, and there is a process."
Beshear, the state attorney general, told his supporters that he had not spoken to his opponent but expects Bevin to "honor the election that was held tonight" and assist with the transition between administrations.
The Associated Press declined to project a winner in the race, citing the small margin between the candidates and Bevin's refusal to concede.
