2 elections I'm watching closely today: One is in Utah, where a state-wide referendum on a school voucher program is on the ballot. The other is the race for Governor in Kentucky, where the Democrat has been well ahead in recent polls, but the ethically-challenged Republican incumbent is pulling out all the nastiest tactics he can to hang on to power:
A new robocall has gone out purporting to be from Fairness.org — the Web site of the Fairness Campaign, an actual gay rights organization in Kentucky — speaking with pride about the strong support of "the homosexual lobby" for Democratic gubernatorial nominee Steve Beshear.Any of my Kentucky-based readers hearing anything? Results here, later.
"Beshear is receiving major support from out-of-state gay activists and has publicly committed to same-gender relationships," the man on the call says.
The Fairness Campaign has denied any part in the calls, and is urging people who have received the calls to report it to the authorities.
[UPDATE: At 59-41, it's a rout. Democrats win in the Bluegrass State!]
