[Josh Mers @JoshMers4KY]

@troysteinmetz @joesonka Scott County Clerk posted link on FB. When combined 607 vote margin in Fayette and 572 deficit in Scott it would look like @CherlynnForKY is reelected by 35 votes

[Joe Sonka 😐 @joesonka]

Wake up Don Blevins

Can’t remember this happening on an election night when @AlisonForKY was SoS. 🤷‍♂️

There are only two things that @SenSchumer and @SenateDems should be talking about

1. Ending the filibuster

&

2. Passing the Women’s Healthcare Protection Act

And they better start now.

[Josh Mers @JoshMers4KY]

@Lee_in_Iowa Politico article said that they had reached out to the Court for comment. Likely advised that they were going to run the story. Court was smart to prepare for protests. Leaked on purpose? Certainly but by which side…

[Ryan Brune @BruneElections]

Abortion is going to instantaneously become illegal in these states.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

Congress must pass legislation that codifies Roe v. Wade as the law of the land in this country NOW. And if there aren’t 60 votes in the Senate to do it, and there are not, we must end the filibuster to pass it with 50 votes.

[Matt Jones @KySportsRadio]

One more thing. If this paragraph actually survives into the final opinion than a lot of rights that people take for granted will have the ability to be overturned

Birth control
Interracial marriage
Gay marriage
Sodomy laws

If this paragraph survives, states can overrule all

[Josh Mers @JoshMers4KY]

@JamieLucke @treswatson Those pesky facts getting I. The way of the narrative. Shame.

Masks and vaccines. Hospitals understand the science. Why doesn't the @KYGOP?

[Fayette Democrats @FayetteDemocrat]

Based on a true story: Republicans in the Kentucky Senate have proposed downright BANNING mask requirements in schools during this special session.

Call 800-372-7181 to tell your legislator to keep @GovAndyBeshear's mask mandate and protect our kids!

[Josh Mers @JoshMers4KY]

Well looks like the fight for the 12th is on. @AmandaMBledsoe has ended the rumors and announced. https://t.co/OPDM6PBnca

Oh just a @RandPaul constituent traveling in peace while wearing my mask on a plane. #mySenatorIsAnIdiot

[Robert Kahne @rkahne]

Kentuckians will remember that we got this money in spite of our Senators, not because of them.

[Kentucky Democrats @KyDems]

Congratulations to Jaime Harrison on becoming @TheDemocrats Chair today!

@monroe31977 @Twitter @senatemajldr I’m kind of fond of him using @staceyabramskickedmyass

[Josh Mers @JoshMers4KY]

Hey @Twitter how do you change your user handle? An older guy from my state is going to need some assistance. He’s currently using @senatemajldr but won’t need that one much longer.

[Josh Mers @JoshMers4KY]

Great job @Walmart made me fall sucker for your shit show of an online ordering launch. Be proud of yourself. You created a bot catch program that only bots could get through. Kudos.
