Election Results - 72nd and 63rd Districts and more
Alecia Webb-Edgington (R) has won the race for the 63rd District House seat 2,632 votes to opponent Dan Wolff's 2,333 votes. This was a surprisingly close race in heavily Republican Northern Kentucky.
Sannie Overly (D) won the 72nd House seat with 3,255 votes compared to 2,054 votes won by Bryan Beauman (R) in Central Kentucky.
We contacted KFTC members and friends in both of these districts leading up to the election to encourage them to learn about the candidates and vote.
Both Alecia Webb-Edington and Sannie Overly will immediately represent their districts in the General Assembly - where KFTC members are already hard at work building support for legislation such as our streamsaver bill, comprehensive tax reform plan, and restoration of voting rights for former felons constitutional amendment.
In other Election news, John Mccain and Hilary Clinton won the critical New Hampshire Primary yesterday. Both have been hailed as come-backs as polls projected Clinton would lose to Obama by 10 points as recently as the morning of the Election and McCain's campaign had been floundering leading up to the primary.
In both parties, it seems that the Presidential Election is still very much open, as different candidates have won different states in the past week.
