Senate president: Kentucky governor's race could be decided by state legislature
Kentucky Senate President Robert Stivers threw another wrench into the state's razor-thin gubernatorial outcome late Tuesday night, saying that the legislature could decide the race.
Stivers, R-Manchester, said based on his staffs research, the decision could come before the Republican-controlled state legislature.
---someone tell what the hell this has to do with ANYTHING ----
Stivers said he thought Bevins speech declining to concede to Beshear was appropriate. He said believes most of the votes that went to Libertarian John Hicks, who received about 2% of the total vote, would have gone to Bevin and made him the clear winner.
