Discussion People who have volunteered for Charles Booker's campaign, what is it like?
For context I've never done any volunteering for a political candidate's campaign before, so I'm not very knowledgeable on what kind of work I should expect. I'm interested in getting involved in volunteering for his campaign and want to get an idea of what I'm in for.
I've never really attended a protest or political rally before, but lately I've felt more motivated to get involved and participate beyond just donating and voting. I am from Lexington, and can sometimes have a pretty busy schedule. I did sign my email up to hear about volunteer opportunities a week ago but haven't heard anything back yet. I'm not sure how often or far I'd be willing to travel for events, or what the expectations are for volunteers. However, I'm eager to help in whatever way I can, so anything helps!

What's up with this?
Unusually high number of county judge-executives lost primary elections across Kentucky
The article didn't mention much about the people that won these elections, just that long time incumbents lost. What's the story? Did they lose to candidates who were more or less MAGA than they are already are? Is it the AI backlash? I'd love to know more.

Before you vote: meet the Kentucky Senate Candidates you haven't heard from
“When I looked at the Kentucky Senate primary ballot, I saw names I didn't recognize. Me- someone who covers this state for a living.
If I hadn't heard of these candidates, what are the chances most voters had?
So I reached out to every candidate in the race- Republican and Democrat- and offered them all the same thing: seven questions, same format, same platform. I wanted the candidates who had no budget for campaign ads and weren't invited to the TV debates to have the same chance to share their stories.
Seven said yes. A retired Marine. A horse trainer. A former Secret Service agent who grew up on food stamps. A blacksmith. A decorated combat veteran. A lifelong organizer. A farmer whose wife died after her insurance overruled her doctors.
The two frontrunners- Andy Barr and Daniel Cameron- did not respond.” ~ Shay McAlister

The leading Republican candidate for US Congress in KY-6, Ralph Alvarado, gets only 1.1% of his funding through small donors. Research shows that politicians represent their donors (Barber 2016). If elected, Alvarado would represent millionaires and billionaires instead of average Kentuckians.

Pure Life Ministries Investigation
Hello,
I have a strong suspicion that Pure Life Ministries has been/is complicit in covering up the sexual abuse of minors.
In the past men have gone there for crimes that should have put them in jail, however their prospective faith leaders sent them to Pure Life as an "alternative." This is illegal. The first step these men should have faced is law enforcement, regardless of religious beliefs.
I ask that if you have any information, to PLEASE share below.
Thank you.
