So now, the Kentucky House is 54% D while the Senate is 29% D.  This is an even greater discrepancy between chambers than in New York where the Assembly is 71% D and the Senate is 49% D. 

I can't find a state with a larger discrepancy with party membership between the two legislative changers.

It's almost like the Oklahoma legislature in the 1920's.

Senate 27-17 D advantage (61%)
House 73-36 R advantage (67%)

On the other hand, can someone with knowledge of Kentucky politics enlighten me how the current chambers now have such a large discrepancy?

It's simply a protection to keep Rand Paul from running for president.

     Kentucky likes him that much, eh? Tongue
