AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Election Shake-up: Republican Andy Barr won Mitch McConnell’s Senate seat, while Democrat Zach Dembo flipped Kentucky’s 6th Congressional District. Democrats also gained nine state legislative seats, though Republicans kept their supermajority. Voters approved limits on governors’ pardons near elections; Morehead’s mayoral race remains headed for a recanvass after a one-vote margin. Recovery Efforts: Jefferson County earned “Recovery Ready” status as Kentucky reports overdose deaths have fallen by half since 2021. Energy Costs: A Lexington forum focused on rising electricity demand, utility bills and Kentucky’s shifting mix of coal, natural gas and renewables. Wildcats: No. 8 Kentucky visits No. 16 Tennessee in a high-stakes football matchup, with College Football Playoff hopes on the line. Conservation: Kentucky opened two wildlife management areas, adding 1,337 acres.
