1. Thanks George.

2. I really like what I've heard from Booker.

However, what I mainly hope, no matter whom the nominee, that they can settle their differences as soon as the primary is over, the way the Democratic presidential candidates managed to do this year.

We have zero hope to gain this seat otherwise.

3. Best chance of beating Turtle!

Go Amy!

4. The number of precincts reporting is irrelevant with all of the absentee votes still to be counted.

The absentee vote is expected to significantly outnumber the in-person precinct voting. It may be another week or so before the absentee votes are counted.

5. I don't know how Kentucky does it, but most states count the absentee ballots prior to or during....

...the primary/election day, and include them in the counts as precincts report.

6. Not in KY. Per Daily Kos, the state's two largest counties will not release results until June 30.

Those two counties are home to the lion's share of Democratic votes in the state.

8. I think McGrath is going to lose she needs a bigger lead

because 0% of the vote from Jefferson and Fayette County are in.
