Kentucky’s Midterms: Senate and District Battles | Louisville News

Kentucky’s midterms may lack a presidential or gubernatorial showdown, but the Senate race and Sixth District battle are heating up—especially as Democrat Charles Booker takes on GOP stalwart Andy Barr for Mitch McConnell’s longtime seat, while Zach Dembo and Ralph Alvarado square off in a district analysts thought was safe Republican ground. Beyond that, veteran Rep. Hal Rogers and rising star James Comer look poised to win their races, while new GOP nominee Ed Gallrein, backed by Trump, could make waves in the Fourth District. Voters also weigh a constitutional amendment aimed at curbing the governor’s pardon powers—a move sparked by past controversies. Democrats, meanwhile, aim to chip away at Republican supermajorities in the legislature, eyeing vulnerable seats where the political tide might be turning.
