They already killing babies out on the streets and handing out Iphones to poors in my neighborhood.
Yeah just like Lexington...
You'll see transient students and faculty from Oregon, New York, Nigeria, Shanghai, Saudi Arabia...all with I voted stickers on...
Anyone know what the guidelines are for requesting a recount for gov race in KY?
The winning results margins are less than 1% diff of total votes in this election.

Stacey Abrams says hello.
Bevin made 3-4 really stupid statements that pretty much cost him reelection.
I think that's probably within the total absentee count. And razor thin in general. This thing won't be resolved anytime soon
All he had to do was walk back some of them. His ego would not allow it.
4 different NYT writers have written about how the Americans killed by Mexican cartels kinda deserved it.
There are no guidelines. Bevin just has to ask for one and he has to pay for all of it. 40% of KY uses paperless electronic machines (which is ****ing stupid) that cannot be recounted. He lost, it isn't changing.

All the absentee have already been counted. KY does not allow any absentee to counted that isn't received by polls closing.
He should go on TV for the next year claiming he actually won like Stacey Abrams.
Plat just pulls the most random facts out his ass and states them as fact. I’m not saying the votes would change but there is no way there is a voting machine in play that doesn’t have the capability of recalculating voting totals
Small gap. Abram's gap in teeth is at least 64,000 votes
I am not for a recount but I do like that we have a system for having one.
The Libertarian vote cannot be understated in Bevin's defeat. If those people could do it all over knowing what they know now, then they would have put Bevin over the goal line.
In a lot of counties the school system is the biggest employer in the county. Add in administrative staff too. And the families of teachers.
I’m not a fan of recounts - my team lost tonight, have some dignity and move on
Thanks. Wasn't sure if they were counted first or last
I think anyone needs a recount when you're at 4k in a state wide election with this many votes. Do I think it'll change the outcome? No. But I think you have to ask for it
Technically your team won in a blowout, but the captain got tossed for pulling down his pants and throwing up both birds while doing the helicopter dance
I had that thought, too.
It seems reasonable to thinking the results would be close the same if the Hicks vote were split on the dem/rep race results.
-may as well do a recount...pay for it out of the teachers pension fund.
30% of us voters across 18 states us electronic machines that do not have paper backup and cannot be recounted. The Dems tried to ban them in the last round of election funding but the GoP wouldn't allow it. The machines were a complete failure from the start but conservative states bought them up in mass in 2005. They are slowly being retired but alot of counties can't afford new ones.
Which counties use electronic machines without the option of paper? I’ve seen one electronic voting machine, and it was on a voluntary use basis.
Then in has to be a cumulative effort by the teachers state wide, because when you look at the county results, there were more Bevins county wins by a substantial margin.
He lost Kenton County. In 2015, he won it by 6K. A week ago he was here & said he favors tolls on new bridge to Ohio. People here are heavily against that, but not me. Foot in mouth disease.
