WASHINGTON – The Twitter hashtag #bybyebevin started trending on Twitter as the polls closed in Kentucky in a heated gubernatorial race that has garnered national attention, including that of President Donald Trump. The two men have a bitter rivalry that goes back to when they first took office in 2015, expressing vastly different visions for where they want to take the state in the next four years.
Bevin has aligned himself with Trump, with the President rallying in Kentucky on Monday night for GOP incumbent, urging Kentuckians to re-elect the Bevin and send a signal"to the rest of the world that the Republican Party – you know what we stand for." Bevin is among the least popular governors in the country. He has caused rebuke within the state on multiple fronts, including from his handling of a teachers walk out when he said students were left vulnerable to sexual assault as a result of school closures and that teachers only caused"sickouts" while schools were in session because they wanted paid time off work.Early numbers showed Bevin slightly leading Beshear.
