Democrat Andy Beshear is claiming victory and made his transition announcement Wednesday after the governor’s race that was reportedly too close to call.

“Well I’m here today to announce the transition and we can only have a transition because the election is over. We are excited to move into this governance stage because we believe that we can put together a leadership team, not just for a transition, but for a cabinet that can serve all Kentuckians.

I believe that Governor Bevin, after deciding whatever his options are or what he’s gonna do, will help in that transition.” Beshear said.
