Voting has become easier since he was elected. My ONLY issue with him is the (R). I would never vote for him. I'm a single issue voter these days.

I don't have anything good to say about him, but he had the good fortune of running against competition that is truly insane or doing a good impression. His closest competitor ran millions of commercials about how she was gonna get tough on China. If there is anyone out there who is looking for that in a gov, we've never met.

My bet is on Andy. I know this is anecdotal, but Republicans I know were not so offended by COVID restrictions (the GQP's main criticism) and they like Beshear. I didn't really want him to be gov, but he has made me a believer. I like him too.
