A note on sources |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You'll note there are no election results prior to 1824. That's because
Kentucky was virtually all Democratic in that period, and besides, we found no actual results. |
The bulk of this material is from a classic on the subject, Jasper B.
Shannon and Ruth McQuown's Presidential Politics in Kentucky, 1824 -
1948. It's a wonderful |
source, but it stops in 1948 (it was published in 1950). Results from
1976 forward can be found on the web site: http://www.elect.ky.gov/results/,
which |
|
is the Kentucky Secretary of State's web site. |
