On May 19, Kentucky held Democratic and Republican primaries for the statewide executive posts. In the Republican gubernatorial primary, the two leading candidates are only 83 votes apart. Matt Bevin is in the lead over James Comer. This article describes Kentucky procedures for recounts. Thanks to Rick Hasen for the link.
Wow, a 80+ margin is considered a virtual tie by Ballot Access News. I know there was doubt that 50% plus one vote is a majority, but I had no idea that virtual ties applied to a 80+ majority with BAN! Must be a slow day for news.
Would “statistical” tie made you happy?
