In two local races on the ballot, Republican Maureen Leamy was elected commonwealth’s attorney and District 4 school board incumbent Rebecca Pepper held on to her seat.
The governor won the election against his Republican challenger, Attorney General Daniel Cameron with 53% to Cameron’s 47% of the vote, according to unofficial returns.
During last week’s early voting period, from Thursday to Saturday, more than 260,000 Kentuckians cast ballots, according to the State Board of Elections.
The poll also asked voters if they “support or oppose Kentucky’s current laws that ban abortion in nearly all cases, with no exception for rape or incest.”
The KET debate was the only joint appearance for Democratic Lt. Gov. Jacqueline Coleman and Republican state Sen. Robby Mills ahead of the Nov. 7 general election.
The race for commonwealth's attorney includes Maureen Leamy and write-in candidate Stephanie Bolen, while the District 4 school board candidates are Rebecca Pepper and write-in hopeful Caleb Ballard.
