    The biggest races to watch on Election Day 2023

    Happy Election Day, America. On Tuesday, voters in at least 37 states are heading to the polls to vote in the biggest election day until the hotly anticipated 2024 presidential election. But Tuesday is much more than just a dress rehearsal for next year's big kahuna. Control of state government is up for grabs in states that are home to a total of over 25 million people, and voters will weigh in directly on hot-button issues like abortion access through numerous ballot measures. It would be impossible to run down every election on Tuesday's ballots, but here's the skinny on some of the most important races to watch.

    Interesting that Kentucky is listed in the article. I expect democrat Andy Beshear to be reelected. However, the article comment below reminded me of the weirdest political commercial I've seen from a Democrat. Beshear had a Kentucky resident on his commercial saying that he is a republican who is voting for Beshear. That part isn't unusual, but he went on to say that he voted for Trump because he's right for America and is voting for Beshear because he is right for Kentucky. I only saw that commercial once and wondered if there was push back from democrats to remove it.

    But President Joe Biden's generally dismal approval ratings and Kentucky's fundamental Republican lean may be working against him.
