I disagree, McConnell beat ALG by 20 pts in a midterm and beat Lunsford by 6 in a Prez election, since this is a landslide by Biden, Booker will win. This is a Prez race not a midterm, that's why McConnell and Graham and Ernst and Daines are stuck at 45
We need Harrison and Booker in the Senate

I’m just telling you as someone who lives here that there is literally no chance of this state electing a black progressive left Democrat who among other things supports the Green New Deal. He is simply DOA in this state.
McConnell beat ALG by 15, not 20, in a horrendous midterm year for Democrats (2014). He beat Lunsford even in a presidential year that was pretty much a landslide for Obama (2008), and Biden is unlikely to win that much bigger nationally. And even if he does, Kentucky has just moved farther right since then so it won’t help much. Lunsford’s performance would still probably be pretty much the ceiling for even McGrath. If by some miracle she squeaks out a win, it would be because of McConnell’s personal unpopularity combined with an extremely favorable national climate for Democrats that sees a collapse in Trump support even in states like Kentucky. But even that I don’t think would be enough to save Booker.
Our best chance was in fact neither, it was Rocky Adkins, but sadly he didn’t run.
