I have serious doubts about this, because Louisville and Lexington are growing, while the coalfields are losing population in droves.
Have you ever heard of a statewide majority where only two counties go for the winning candidate? Coal Country and the West are more gone for you which each passing day. Sorry, but it's not happening.
I'm sure it's happened in Illinois in the past. Of course, Louisville and Lexington are nowhere close to the share of the state that Chicago is for Illinois.
He's right though because unlike a state like say Arkansas, where the areas that are growing in population are Republican strongholds, Kentucky's growing regions are in Louisville, Lexington, and the Cincy suburbs. Unfortunately, it's gonna take some time for those regions to offset the losses in coal country.
