Trump will win KY again by double digits too. I gave up trying to understand the KY electorate. They elected a GOP governor who ran expressly on eliminating "Obamacare". A large percent of KY were covered by Obamacare but they thought they had something different because it wasn't called Obamacare in KY. For those who think that the more liberal Booker would have fared any better than Mcgrath I'm convinced he wouldn't have. While Beshear won the Gov race in 2018 he was running against a guy who was hated and it was still a photo finish.
