It's been quite a week for Kentucky politics! We have four stories this week, each of which could have been it's own show.
First, the fall of Jeff Hoover, the (now) former Speaker of the House, who has been embroiled in a sexual harassment scandal. Then, we talk about Louisville Councilman Dan Johnson, who faced his own sexual harassment trial this week. Then, we discuss the assault of Rand Paul over the weekend, and finally, we talk about firings which occured at the State Board of Elections, which have led to some allegations about Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes. What a week!
