A successful get out the vote effort by Oldham County Republicans helped to secure Senator Mitch McConnell's reelection Tuesday. Oldham County delivered 18,744 votes to Team Mitch and out-performed several larger GOP counties with respect to turn-out percentage. As usual, Oldham County helped to offset the Jefferson County Democrat vote. With about 20,500 registered Republicans, the 18,744 votes represents about 91 percent of registered Republicans within the county, but does not take into consideration Democrat or Independent cross-over votes.
Oldham County Republicans recognized the stakes with respect to a 60 or more Democrat Senate majority and did their job on behalf of Republicans across the country. Oldham County provided similar results for the McCain-Palin ticket, Congressman Geoff Davis and State Representative David Osborne, who was unopposed.
