The map used in KY is actually a kinda D gerrymander, and gives them more seats, so there is that. But KY also just seems to have more elastic voters, perhaps from its D history.

Remember that Democrats still have a plurality of registered voters in this state, and in some counties in the east that percentage exceeds 80%. Many of these people continue to vote Democratic down ballot.

yeah but why kentucky
Why not WV or parts of TN?
Why did KT dems survive until 2016?

Well the WV Dems still survived, and still have some influence, I mean, look at the state legislature composition.
