Today is October 31, 2023, and in 7 days Kentucky voters will go to the polls to elect all the statewide officials from governor and lieutenant governor to secretary of state, attorney general, state auditor, all the way down to commissioner of agriculture. Those officials will be in charge of state government for the next four years along with the already elected state legislature which is arguably one of the worst Right Wing Radical Repugnican state legislatures in the nation which is nearly always as bad or worse than the legislatures of the worst run states in the nation, Texas, Mississippi, and Florida. We have been truly blessed in Kentucky to have the best governor in America for the last four years and he was our attorney general for the preceding four years. Governor Andy Beshear has been the one thing that has protected and saved Kentucky from the incredibly destructive actions of the other elected officials both in the legislature and in the lesser statewide constitutional offices. In this election, Governor Beshear is opposed by the worst attorney general in the state's recent history, Daniel Cameron, who has worked daily for the last four years to destroy constitutional freedoms in Kentucky, to robe the state's public school children of funding in order to give that money unconstitutionally to private religious based schools in clear violation of the Seperation of Church and State. Cameron is joined on the Right Wing Radical Repugnican ticket by a group of equally dangerous, destructive, and unfit candidates. Those candidates include the current secretary of state Michael Adams who under a purported effort to "improve voting in Kentucky" has worked daily to make voting more difficult for Democrats, disabled, and minorities. Actually, none of the current slate of Right Wing Radical Repugnican candidates in Kentucky are any better than Cameron and Adams. They are all dangerous and unfit.
Thankfully, in nearly all polling in the governor's race, Andy Beshear has been leading the polling by somewhat comforting numbers. But polling can be deceiving and a great deal of Right Wing Radical Repugnican polling and the companies which conduct is deceptive, goal directed to paint a false picture of actual political trends and geared to assist whatever candidate, party, or political action committee is paying for it. It is generally not empirical and is almost always goal directed instead of directed toward achieving an honest assessment of the voters' opinions on statewide issues. This is a very dangerous election for many reasons: 1) the Repugnnican candidates are totally unfit to hold any position of public trust at any level; 2) voters, or at least a large portion of voters in Kentucky are both politically naive and willing to swallow any lie a candidate tells them which they believe fits into their particular set of likes and dislikes. We are facing the possibility that an unfit Right Wing Radical Repugnican governor and an equally unfit under card of statewide candidates could be combined with what is already the worst possible state legislature. If they gain control of all three branches of state government the damage they will do the the state in the next four years will be equal to that already done by their equals in Texas, Florida, and Mississippi. It is imperative that Democratic candidates must be elected in this election in Kentucky. We must, for the sake of the young, elderly, ill and infirm, people of color, LGBTQ, and all other minorities, reelect Governor Andy Beshear and give him an under card of equally competent statewide officials if we are to keep Kentucky as a functioning democracy. Go Vote on election day, Tuesday, November 7, 2023! VOTE STRAIGHT DEMOCRATIC, Every Election, Every Race! Help save this state from the most unfit slate of candidates the Right Wing Radical Repugnican party has ever put forth in this state.
