2. Lexington is surprisingly liberal.

Big college town, lots of artsy type liberals. The conservatives populate the rest of the state, except for some counties in the mountains.

3. The gay thing never came up

We elected the best person. The dullard Rand Paul? Can't explain, we tried. Lexington went Conway. We retained Ben Chandler d. KY 6th with a majority of about 600 votes out of 239,000. Lets start on dethroning Mitchie. Lexington, indeed is a progressive oasis in a desert of tea grounds.
