Ours went Trump.  The only two counties that Harris won were Fayette
(Lexington) and Jefferson (Louisville).  That was foreseeable.  Honestly,
had Biden not blown the first debate and stayed on the ticket, I might not
have been as sure about it.

I don't really think that was an accident, especially since he got
re-elected.  The people here are conservatives but won't put up with ideas
that are outright cruel or stupid.  Now, if the state economy had been as bad
off as the national one has been, Beshear might have lost re-election.
