Polls closed in the Kentucky Democratic primary at 6 p.m. local time Wednesday. The state is split between the central and eastern time zones, so results can be expected after 7 p.m. ET.
Only the Democrats have a presidential primary contest in Kentucky this evening, as the state Republican Party opted for a caucus early in the year this election cycle.
Waiting for the chairs to start flying.
Eh, I’m not feeling too confident about KY. The reason being is that Clinton isn’t planning a speech. Now, that could be because she really doesn’t want to rub it in to the already perpetually aggrieved Sanders supporters and wants to appear to the general electorate like she already knew she had this thing in the bag, or it could be because she doesn’t think she’s going to win. The latter seems more likely than the former.
So far it looks close at least. Hopefully we’ll do better in Oregon tonight.
“Republican Party opted for a caucus early in the year this election cycle.”
And by opted, they blackmailed and got paid off by Paul so he could run for President, even though everyone knew his campaign would be over before it got to Kentucky, and it was.
THAT should replace the phrase “like taking candy from a baby”. Make it “like taking money from the Paul campaign”
All that matters are Jefferson and Fayette Counties. KY has 120 counties. Sanders seems to be running up his numbers in Eastern KY, coal country, land of “I hate that {clang} in the White House”. Keep your eyes on Jefferson County, Fayette, and South Western KY and Daviess County and the counties that border MO and IN.
