Guess again - the majority of people do not want blanket amnesty and citizenship for all illegal immigrants.

With almost all the reporting in it sure looks like a horse race.


Thus far Hillary has a lead of 1869 votes.

Let's be frank here. Sanders won all the coal counties in eastern KY and many of the rural counties. I don't how she won Fayette County where the University of Kentucky is located. She won Jefferson County due to an urban black vote. Jefferson County is so large comparatively that it can make up for dozens of small counties.

This is just yet another example of an urban area imposing its will on dozens of rural counties.

She beats an old socialist by just a few votes. Pretty sad for Hillary. Shows how many Democrats don't even like her.

All the VOTES are in, no way Sanders can win Kentucky!

Who cares, Bernie had to win 65% to 35%. It is over my friends.

Not when I posted and as I said it was very close.


Hillary is obviously not a clear choice to Dem voters.

Riiiiight. I assume you pay taxes, and you rather let that money go to the Iraq war for 3 trillion dollars instead of 50 years of free public university tuition to invest in the future of the country. Your regressive agenda is a dying agenda.

Sanders is finished off now. The only way he still has a chance is if he gets 90% or more of the vote in every state and territory left for the Democrats to win. And even if that does happen (which it won't), i still don't think he'll get the nomination.

I'd rather have that 3 trillion spent securing the border so no more parasites can get in and suck us dry.
