    <places tin foil hat on head>

    I believe that tedd cruz along with mitch mconnell and lindsey graham all cheated in their last win. All three were in what look like tight races but all three ended up winning by big-ish margins given the polling. I have no evidence other than a feeling but I just can’t shake that feeling is somehow not completely wrong.

    If any of my completely unfounded conspiracy is right then Allred ain’t going to win .

      As someone from Kentucky, I could’ve sworn that I saw reports coming out that the margin McConnell was winning by in some rural counties was higher than the ratio of registered Republicans to Democrats. Implying that a large swath of rural democrats were voting for McConnell. Now, I don’t claim to know every democrat in the state. However, every democrat I met hates the guy and a lot of republicans hold their nose voting for him.

      Also as quickly as I saw those reports, they vanished. Myriad of reasons to explain things, but sure seems odd, right?

      Well it’s not legally considered cheating if it’s gerrymandering.

        Gerrymandering does not affect state wide elections.

        Believe it or not, McConnell is elected by popular vote in the state. Crazy, right?
