Kentucky Secretary of State Race Heats Up | Louisville News

The Kentucky Secretary of State race is exploding with drama—even as current holder Michael Adams still holds office. Two Republicans, Army vet Jack Whitfield and county clerk’s son Brad Holsclaw, are already in the mix, vying for control of elections and business filings. Whitfield leans into election security with Washington ties, while Holsclaw champions voting rights and small businesses. But don’t sleep on the field: former auditor Mike Harmon and Survivor’s Nick Wilson are also considering runs, possibly swelling the race to a dozen candidates. Meanwhile, Adams endorsed GOP governor hopeful James Comer and ruled himself out—after navigating legal scrutiny over voter rolls. Democrats remain quiet but are being nudged to join. Whoever wins will face a mountain of responsibility, especially as election integrity rages on. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
