  • The Gubernatorial Elections of 2015: Hard-Fought Races for the Open Seats by Jennifer M
    GOVERNORS The Gubernatorial Elections of 2015: Hard-Fought Races for the Open Seats By Jennifer M. Jensen and Thad Beyle Only three governors were elected in 2015. Kentucky, Louisiana and Mississippi are the only states that hold their gubernatorial elections during the year prior to the presidential election. This means that these three states can be early indicators of any voter unrest that might unleash itself more broadly in the next year’s congressional and presidential elections, and we saw some of this in the two races where candidates were vying for open seats. Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant (R) was elected to a second term, running in a state that strongly favored his political party. Both Kentucky and Louisiana have elected Democrats and Republicans to the governorship in recent years, and each race was seen as up for grabs by many political pundits. In the end, each election resulted in the governorship turning over to the other political party. Though Tea Party sentiments played a signifi- he lost badly to McConnell, he had name recog- cant role in the primary elections in Kentucky and nition when he entered the gubernatorial race as Louisiana, none of the general elections reflected an anti-establishment candidate who ran an out- the vigor that the Tea Party displayed in the 2014 sider’s campaign against two Republicans who had gubernatorial elections. With only two open races held elected office. Bevin funded the vast majority and one safe incumbent on the ballot, the 2015 of his primary spending himself, contributing more elections were generally not characterized as a than $2.4 million to his own campaign.

    CLIENT SPOTLIGHT “We’re incredibly proud of the continued success of kynect, which has helped hundreds of thousands of Kentuckians find quality, affordable health coverage.” – Governor Steve Beshear, Commonwealth of Kentucky Changing Lives: Deploying an Impacts from transformation: Effective State-Run Exchange to • An insurance marketplace offering Promote Enrollment in Affordable better, more affordable coverage options • Reduced the uninsured Healthcare Insurance• rate in Kentucky by nearly half • Job creation among Many health analysts did not expect Kentucky, a state at or near agencies, issuers, and the bottom of almost every measurable health category, to lead the healthcare providers nation in improving access to quality, affordable healthcare coverage • A reduction in previously uncompensated hospital for its citizens. Nor did they think that the benefits of a state-run care expenses healthcare exchange would extend in ways that could alter its • A healthier workforce economic future for the better. The Governor and his leadership contributing to a stronger economy team proved them wrong. When Kentucky Governor Steve Beshear took office, he faced a tremendous challenge in overcoming longstanding issues associated with uninsured and underinsured citizens. So when the Affordable Care Act (ACA) became law, he didn’t see it as a burden, but rather as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to improve the health status of the state’s citizens over the long-term. And that was when he made one of the most important decisions in his role as governor. “We could have opted to use the federal marketplace as a means for providing access to affordable healthcare insurance,” explains Governor Beshear.
