Democrats extended their special election hot streak Tuesday with a decisive landslide in Kentucky Senate District 37, a Louisville-area seat Republicans hoped to make competitive after a close 2024 presidential showing. Democrat Gary Clemons crushed GOP nominee Calvin Leach by nearly 50 points, easily outperforming Kamala Harris’s five-point margin in the district last year. The result underscores a broader trend of Democratic overperformance as President Donald Trump’s approval slides and economic pessimism grows, adding Kentucky to a string of recent Democratic wins and near-upsets across red and swing territory alike.
