Saagar and Ryan Grim: How Schumer RIGGED Kentucky, Colorado primary against progressives
(01.07.2020)
Saagar Enjeti and Ryan Grim evaluate Amy McGrath‘s victory in the neck and neck Kentucky primary race against progressive challenger Charles Booker.
Just FYI: There’s a 6,000 vote discrepancy between the exit polls and final results in Booker vs McGrath. This is over the 4% which the UN identifies as possible election fraud. Just something to think about.

Amy McGrath Defeats Charles Booker in Kentucky Democratic Senate Primary
(30.06.2020)
Former Marine fighter pilot Amy McGrath won a Democratic primary to become the nominee for the U.S. Senate from Kentucky, fending off a strong late challenge from a state legislator whose rise to prominence reflected the renewed energy of the progressive movement.
Ms. McGrath, who had the backing of the Democratic establishment, defeated state House lawmaker Charles Booker, according to Associated Press projections.
At this point: @Booker4KY won the Kentucky primary. The DNC is just trying to do for Amy McGrath what they did for Pete Buttigieg in Iowa.
Regardless of the official „outcome“, Booker fucking won. They‘ve spent the past 6 days just trying to fudge the numbers.
Sure it’s fraud. No one, no one wanted McGrath!
Sadly, I think the voting machines in Kentucky will keep spinning like Las Vegas slot machines until they produce the desired establishment result.

Officials with the County Clerk‘s office say, considering constraints because of COVID-19, and the fact that the county has 2,000 different types of ballots, the Fair and Expo Center was the obvious choice for the only polling location Jefferson county voters will have on Primary Day.
Nore Ghibaudy with the Jefferson County Clerk‘s Office said that they‘re still finalizing how to lay out the landmark and the National Guard will be asked to help.
