FACTS
The first House numbers out of Kentucky have Republicans in front everywhere votes have been counted, according to Associated Press results published by The New York Times as of 6:33 p.m. ET.
In the open 6th District around Lexington, Republican Ralph Alvarado leads Democrat Zach Dembo 59.4% to 36.0%, with independent Jay Bowman at 3.5%, on under 1% of the expected vote. Rep. James Comer leads 74-26 in the 1st, Rep. Hal Rogers 65-31 in the 5th (about 6% counted), Ed Gallrein 56-42 in the 4th, and Rep. Brett Guthrie 52-46 in the 2nd on a very small early count.
These are early, mostly advance votes from the Eastern Time counties, where polls closed at 6 p.m. Western Kentucky closes at 7 p.m. ET. No outlet has called any of these races.
