This week in Kentucky politics…
A win for reproductive rights advocates as Kentucky voters defeat Amendment 2, the anti-abortion modification on the poll. However abortion continues to be in a state of limbo in Kentucky. The state Supreme Courtroom is scheduled to listen to arguments over abortion bans subsequent week.
U.S Senator Rand Paul scored a third term, defeating his Democratic opponent Charles Booker. The large upset Booker was anticipating didn’t materialize, and Paul is laser-focused on investigating Anthony Fauci over his choices throughout the coronavirus pandemic.
And it was a great election cycle for Kentucky’s Republicans, who racked up more state House and Senate seats, bolstering GOP management of the Legislature.
