Kentucky - OFFICIAL rumors and results thread

[Meeker]

Wolf is positioning himself to call it

[Eraserhead]

13%

Clinton 49%
Obama 48%

I understand "his" areas are coming in but should it really be this close?

[Filuwaúrdjan]

Here's to ignoring Appalachia for another four years after this!

"People who vote different to the way I'd like them to are evil"

No, it's closer to "People who decide their vote on illegitimate reasons suck."

Who are you to declare what is or isn't a legitimate reason to vote one way or other [question mark].

And what makes you so sure that you know why people there are voting the way that they are [question mark].

CNN projects Kentucky by "perhaps a margin of 30 points"

[Filuwaúrdjan]

You mean Western KY right? 

Yep

[Alcon]

Exit poll says 64.9-29.2 Clinton, a margin of 35.7%.

[Eraserhead]

NBC calls it for Clinton.

[Eraserhead]

16%

Clinton 51%
Obama 46%

[Joe Biden 2020]

33 delegates have already been awarded from Kentucky.  Clinton gets 22 to put her at 1741 (CNN estimate) and Obama gets 11 to put him at 1929 which is 97 delegates away from the nomination.

Clinton 49%
Obama 48%

I understand "his" areas are coming in but should it really be this close?

Louisville and Lexington account for roughly 70% of the votes in on the state site with 22% of all precincts in.  Clinton is still up 54-43.  That should tell you what will soon happen.

[War on Want]

So, um, why does Edwards suck so much?

The sort of areas where he's prone to do well aren't in yet. Wait and see.

Some rural areas where he would normally do well in are in, right?

[Alcon]

Jefferson County is currently about 3/4 of the votes cast.  It's less than 1/5 of the state population.

Slaughter, folks.

College educated number for KY:  64% of voters  (just FYI)

Slaughter, folks.

Thankfully, the tables will be turned, though not completely, when we get to Oregon in about 3 hours 45 minutes.  Unfortunately, Obama's Oregon win doesn't look as big as Clinton's Kentucky win.

Taking a quick look at some of the almost completed (or not almost completed) counties in CD-05, I really don't think he's going to reach viability there.

[Eraserhead]

My left foot hurts.

Did I just hear Terry McCauliffef say a poll has Hillary beating McCain in KY?  Was this a online poll on Hillaryis44?  Maybe even this forum's poll?

Hillary does beat McCain in head-to-heads. In this sense, McAuliffe is correct.

However, Obama beats McCain by more. In this sense, McAuliffe is talking out his ass.

[JohnCA246]

Im sorry I meant to say in KY.  He said She beats him in KY if I heard right

Clinton 56%

Hillary's lead among whites. 72-22.
Hillary's lead among those with postgraduate degrees. 57-37.

[War on Want]

We are screwed here. Almost all pro-Obama areas are done reporting, except for Cinncinati suburb area, and some more Lexington.

[Lief 🗽]

Some Obama areas just came in big and he shot up about 3 points.

[nyquil_man]

I didn't hear that.

The last poll listed on the Atlas that had Clinton leading McCain in Kentucky was from November, when she was leading Obama by 20% and McCain was a longshot for the GOP nod.

She would do better there against McCain than Obama would, but it would be a stretch to say she can win it.
