AdFive days later, the Supreme Court ruled 5-4 to strike down an unrelated Louisiana law regulating abortion clinics.

Matt Bevin of Kentucky speaks with the media prior to a campaign rally for President Donald Trump on Nov. 4, 2019, in Lexington, Kentucky. Matt Bevin is officially requesting the commonwealth to recanvass the votes from Tuesday's election.

(CNN) - Voter turnout was considerably higher in Kentucky on Tuesday than in past elections, signaling increased interest in politics during President Donald Trump's administration and the possibility of historic turnout in 2020. Voter turnout in Kentucky was over 42%, according to unofficial figures from the state's secretary of state office, a number that far outpaces the 30.7% who voted in 2015 -- the last time Republican Gov. Voter turnout in the state's primary in May was less than 20%, making Tuesday's turnout even more stark by comparison. Roughly 56% of all eligible voters cast ballots in the 2016 election, the lowest voter turnout has fallen in two decades. Since then, however, voter turnout has surged and Democrats have pointed to their party's deep antipathy toward Trump as the reason.

Stephen Maturen/Getty Images(CNN) - Democrat Andy Beshear claimed victory Tuesday night in the Kentucky governor's race, but Republican Gov. Bevin had the strong backing of the President, and Trump held a rally in Lexington, Kentucky, the night before the election. Beshear was elected attorney general of Kentucky in 2015, and is the son of Steve Beshear, Bevin's predecessor. At his own election party on Tuesday night, Bevin, told supporters in Louisville: "Would it be a Bevin race if it wasn't a squeaker?

Matt Bevin of Kentucky speaks with the media prior to a campaign rally for President Donald Trump on Nov. 4, 2019, in Lexington, Kentucky. (CNN) - The impact of impeachment faces a test on Tuesday as Kentucky voters head to the polls to select their next governor. As the impeachment process ramps up in Washington, the Kentucky election will test whether Trump's base is energized enough to reelect an unpopular Republican incumbent.

"Probably not here in Kentucky," Beshear supporter Rick Wanalista said when asked if the impeachment inquiry would help the Democrats.

Mark Wallheiser/Getty Images(CNN) - The outcome of races in Kentucky, Mississippi and Virginia on Tuesday could shed light on how the country is leaning in the middle of an impeachment inquiry and as it heads into a presidential election year. Voters will decide the next governors of Kentucky and Mississippi, two solidly red states that voted for Trump in 2016. Democrats made major gains in the Virginia House of Delegates in 2017, but a contested recount ended in a lottery drawing that ultimately gave Republicans control of the state House of Delegates. A candidate needs a majority in the popular vote and needs to win a majority of Mississippi's 122 state house districts. If no candidate fulfills both of these requirements, the Mississippi House of Representatives, which is controlled by Republicans, selects the winner.
