(93,503 posts)3. Dem up by less than 1%, is there a run off or recount for KY? tia

(10,578 posts)4. It is super close and Bevin is closing the margin.
The lead is down to 13,000. 95 percent reporting.
The lead was about 31,000 when 90 percent reporting.
Forgive me for being a downer but I am worried that Bevin will pull this one out.
If anyone has different information then by all means let us know.

(9,647 posts)9. I was just comparing the outstanding counties to their 2016 votes
I don't think the Republicans have 10,000 votes in those counties - maybe 6000 tops, and that is probably an overestimate assuming less turnout..
I think the questions is what they have left in the other counties that are partially reported. But someone more familiar with Kentucky may have better insight.

(21,625 posts)6. No network called it
A political consultant did, but that's nothing official.

OliverQ
(3,363 posts)8. I know, and everyone is jumping on his call even Ted Lieu.
Talk about a mess if Bevin ends up winning.

(10,578 posts)10. Beshear's lead is up to 12,000 with 99% reporting!!!! (eom)

(9,647 posts)11. Yup, Beshear has widened it a little with 98% in according to NY Times
It may be getting close to a call now.
