Edelen loses run for re-election

While Democrats were reeling from the loss of the governor’s mansion, they were dealt another blow in the auditor’s office. State Auditor Adam Edelen was upset last night by his Republican opponent Representative Mike Harmon. Harmon had raised less money than Edelen, but was able to win the office by a narrow margin. According to the unofficial results of the Kentucky Board of Elections, Harmon beat Edelen by 36-thousand votes, or by less than three percent.
