No. Unless he goes up on stage and basically insults everyone in the state and says that if reelected he'll make them all pay him $10,000, and lets be honest, if there's any governor in the country that would do that, its him. Otherwise no.

This is also the same governor who was loudly booed when he came on stage at his state's signature event. Could you ever imagine such a thing happening to Steve Beshear or Happy Chandler? Bevin is Rauner/Christie/Malloy level unpopular, and from the looks of it, he won't change that just by clinging closer to Trump.

Both Malloy and Brownback, despite being more unpopular than Bevin and in less partisan states than Kentucky, won re-election.

In 2014 too. As much as partisanship/polarization is an overused meme of sorts on here, it still continues to have an increasing value even on state-level politics.

Umm honestly I think this thing is overhyped, I think Adkins and Edelen’s chances in the primary are overstated, especially Adkins, and Beshear will win fairly comfortably, this is a total guess but I am going to guess that Beshear is somewhere near half of the vote, Adkins clocking in around 25 and Edelen maybe at like 20 and others at 5

And whoever wins the primary will lose substantially to Matt Bevin, so it is all in vain anyways.

Turnout is good for anyone but Beshear with those estimates. Eastern Kentucky is definitely Adkins Country, and the cities are good ground for Edelen.

Edelen is overhyped, I doubt he absolutely dominates in Jeffco or Fayetteco

Yeah, but he'll probably win them.
But I could see Andy winning easily. We'll see.

Adkins leads by 5 votes so far, lol.

Edit: Now 68. Still almost nothing in.

This is absurdly early. But it's so far good for Adkins.

Big dump came in. Beshear is catching up fast. He will probably overtake Adkins shortly. Looking to be how we all figured - Bevin vs Beshear.

Yes, but margins here should be relatively interesting. Especially on the R side.

Also Beshear is doing pretty well up in the Cincinnati metro.
