President Trump’s campaign said the president practically “dragged” Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin (R) across the finish line, as it responded to Democrat Andy Beshear claiming victory in the state’s gubernatorial race on Tuesday.

Other Republicans won their state races in Kentucky on Tuesday, however, including the victory by Daniel Cameron (R) in the attorney general race.

The article goes on to state the following:

“President Trump’s rally helped five of six Kentucky Republicans win clear statewide victories, including Attorney General-elect Daniel Cameron, who will be the first black A.G. in Kentucky history and the first Republican to hold the office since 1948,” Trump’s campaign manager Brad Parscale said in a statement. 

“The President just about dragged Gov. Matt Bevin across the finish line, helping him run stronger than expected in what turned into a very close race at the end. A final outcome remains to be seen,” Parscale continued. 

“Won 5 out of 6 elections in Kentucky, including 5 great candidates that I spoke for and introduced last night,” Trump tweeted. ” @MattBevin picked up at least 15 points in last days, but perhaps not enough (Fake News will blame Trump!). Winning in Mississippi Governor race!”
