@123xyz.bsky.social: But Kentucky did elect a Democratic governor and I doubt that was because the voters all accidentally filled in the wrong bubble.

Oh so Mitch is DYING dying

This is actually weird if for that reason because it actually opens up the possibility of a dem replacement, which the previous law would not allow for. Previously it demanded a replacement from a list of three of the same party of the vacator. This allows a doug Jones possibility.

I feel like the only way we could Doug Jones this seat is if the KY GOP somehow nominates Matt Bevin to serve out the rest of McConnell's term
