However, I'm logging it to 10 PM because that is the general midpoint of the big kahunas, and still very useful with close races. [Ex: LA-GOV Jungle 2019, Edwards settled into 46%, but Abraham was still in second place at the number Rispone ultimately took]

Beshear won in 2015 by 0.2%, when was that called?

The KY state constitution makes a special case for the governor's race, which  "if contested" can be solved by the legislature stepping in.
The definition of contested is key here: are 5,000 votes contestable?

The good news in this new development is that the current SoS Alison Grimes can be trusted with an honest appraisal of tallies.

Let's not imagine what would happen if this were the same as Georgia, with Bevin in charge of counting his own ballots!
