Well, were watching a barn burner of a race in kentucky. It is unbelievable. With more than half of the vote in, the race is too close to call with a difference of just, over, get this. Not , votes, 36 votes separating the two candidates. Some votes, a lot of them love to be counted. Lets go to steve. Weve seen the lead change hands four times in the last four minutes. I can tell you what has been driving. Maybe five minutes ago. Bernie sanders leading by 1,000 votes statewide and a big dump of votes, this is jefferson county, louisville, Hillary Clinton is leading by a demanding margin here. The 57 in. We got a big dump.
