Results are in for most significant races of the 2024 election, with Donald Trump set to return to the White House after being elected the 47th president of the United States.

However, at the state level, winners for several Kentucky House and Senate seats still remain unknown.

Here’s what we know about races that have yet to be called in the commonwealth as of Wednesday afternoon.

Kentucky race results remain unknown after Election Day 2024

Most state races were called by late Tuesday, but winners remain unknown in a handful of House districts, where candidates are separated by as little as 30 votes.

Uncalled districts include:

• District 31, where Republican Susan Tyler Witten leads Democrat Colleen Davis with 50.7% of the vote
• District 38, where Democrat Rachel Roarx leads Republican Carrie Sanders McKeehan with 50.7% of the vote
• District 45, where Democrat Adam Moore leads Republican Thomas Jefferson with 50.3% of the vote
• District 67, where Democrat Matthew Lehman leads Republican Terry Hatton with 50.1% of the vote
• District 88, where Republican Vanessa Grossl leads Democrat Cherlynn Stevenson with 50.5% of the vote

Stevenson conceded to Grossl in a social media post Wednesday.

The winner of District 29 in the Kentucky Senate also remains unknown, with Scott Madon leading among 11 write-in candidates vying to fill the late Sen. Johnnie L. Turner’s seat.

When will Kentucky winners be finalized?

Kentucky Secretary of State spokesperson Michon Lindstrom said the state Board of Elections is working to gather final results for races that have yet to be called.

“The counties have to finalize their results to us by noon on Friday,” Lindstrom stated.

How can Kentucky candidates get a recount, recanvas?

Lindstrom said to receive an automatic recount, a race must fall within 0.5%.

Candidates can also request a recount but have to pay for it if they don’t meet the recount threshold. Costs vary and are set by the court, Lindstrom said.

Races within 1% can qualify for recanvassing, and candidates seeking a recanvas must make a request, Lindstrom said.

The final stretch of the regular season has come for the Kentucky Wildcats.

Kentucky and head coach Mark Stoops have undoubtedly had a very disappointing season by their standards. At 3-6 on the season and 1-6 in the SEC, Kentucky is quite possibly trending for its worst record since Mark Stoops’ first season, when Kentucky finished 2-10 on the year.

They will most likely miss a bowl for the first time since the 2015 season, snapping the streak of eight straight bowl games.

On their second bye week this week, Kentucky gets a ‘get right’ game against Murray State at home before taking the trip to Austin for a showdown with the Texas Longhorns and finishing it off with the Louisville Cardinals at home for the Governor’s Cup.

Two out of the last three opponents are ranked in the first College Football Playoff rankings, one of which will most certainly make the CFP representing the SEC.

Heading into the final month of the season, how are we feeling? What is Kentucky’s record in the final three games?

Kentucky was one of the first states to call the presidential race in 2024, thanks in part to election laws that speed up the vote-counting process, Secretary of State’s Office spokesperson Michon Lindstrom said.

Kentucky law allows county clerks to begin processing absentee ballots before polls close, unlike some states, Lindstrom said, which gives election workers a head start on the work for when they can start officially counting votes. Processing of mail-in ballots can begin up to 14 days before an election and must begin by 8 a.m. on election day, according to Kentucky law.

The procedure for processing mail-in ballots can vary slightly from state to state, according to USA TODAY, but it typically prepares the ballot to be counted by verifying the voter’s information and eligibility on the mail ballot envelope, opening the envelope and removing the ballot.

Kentucky polls also close at 6 p.m. local time, making it and Indiana the first two states in the country to close polls, USA TODAY reported.

Winning in Kentucky has been a fairly easy feat for former President Donald Trump in his previous two campaigns, claiming the state by comfortable margins in both elections. He garnered 62.5% of Kentuckians’ votes in 2016 and 62.1% in 2020. Trump was projected to repeat his dominance in Kentucky in 2024.

Kentucky became the first state the Associated Press called in the 2020 General Election when the organization declared Trump the winner around 7 p.m., roughly an hour after polls closed. A similar pattern unfolded in 2016, when Kentucky was among the first three states called by Associated Press.

The commonwealth’s two largest counties, Jefferson and Fayette, are the only two locales where Democratic nominees outstripped their Republican opponent in 2016 and 2020. In Jefferson County, 59.1% of votes went to then-candidate Joe Biden in 2020. In 2016, 54.1% of votes in the county went to former Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton.
