Howard Wilkinson's Politics Chat: An Amazingly Close GOP Primary For Kentucky Governor

WVXU politics reporter Howard Wilkinson talked with news director Maryanne Zeleznik Wednesday morning  about the Republican primary for Kentucky governor. It  was one of the closest elections in the history of the Commonwealth - Louisville businessman Matt Bevin led Agriculture Commissioner James Comer by a scant 83 votes out of 214,187 votes cast. Comer has asked for a re-canvass of Tuesday's vote; and, if he picks up votes, he could ask for a full recount.

Howard Wilkinson is in his 50th year of covering politics on the local, state and national levels.
