The midterm elections are in the books, and it was a blue tsunami everywhere in the country …

… except for Kentucky.

Here’s a rundown from AP:

• Democrats have won control of Congress in a widespread repudiation of President Donald Trump and the Republican Party, a drubbing that reached deep into reliable GOP territory. Democrats flipped at least seven Senate seats in ruby-red states and battlegrounds alike: Kansas, which hasn’t elected a Democratic senator in nearly a century, Iowa, Texas, Ohio, Maine, North Carolina and South Carolina. They held on to battleground seats in Georgia and Michigan. In the House, Democrats flipped more than two dozen districts, some that voted for Trump by double digits in 2024.
• Democrats Keisha Lance Bottoms in Georgia, Amy Acton in Ohio, Rob Sand in Iowa and Gina Hinojosa in Texas won races for governor, flipping GOP-held offices. Democrats will control a majority of governors’ offices for the first time since 2010.
• Trump faces a profoundly reshaped Washington for the last two years of his presidency. Democrats will have the power to block his legislative agenda, reject his appointees and investigate his administration. After telling voters repeatedly to “pretend I’m on the ballot,”Trump tried to shift the blame away from himself, saying Democrats “did a good job” in their campaigns and blaming GOP candidates for losses. Most voters appear to blame his administration for high costs and want Congress to impose more checks on him, according to The AP Voter Poll.

Look at that list. Look at all of the places that repudiated the MAGA agenda and the Orange Menace.

And what did we pick up in Kentucky? Just one additional Democratic U.S. House seat in the district being vacated by our newly elected bigot for the U.S. Senate, Garland Hale Barr IV.

What we get out of this is voters in a state with one of the highest poverty rates in the U.S., with the highest cancer rate in the country, and that may lose up to 13 rural hospitals because of the actions of its MAGA representation in Congress took all of that into consideration and decided: “We want to make our lives even more miserable, because our hatred for others is more important to us than being decent human beings.”

Everyone in this state who voted to sustain MAGA bigotry and stupidity deserves the suffering that falls upon them.
