Robin Webb (D) Wins Senate Seat in 18th District

It’s kinda official, the Democrats will take the 18th district State Senate seat from the Republicans. From BGPolitics:

Robertson County goes for Webb: Dem. Robin Webb, 168; GOP Jack Ditty, 142; independent Guy Gibbons, 12.

Lewis County goes for Ditty: GOP Jack Ditty, 1,184; Dem Robin Webb, 1,072; independent Guy Gibbons, 63.

A super contested race, that is a rare win for Beshear in his  attempt to pass gambling legislation. We wish the best of luck to Robin in her new position. Here’s the total numbers:

Jack Ditty: 8,402 (46.6%)
Robin Webb: 8,684 (48.1%)
Guy Gibbons Jr. 953 (5.3%)
