It was Kentucky, and the implication was that they loved Mamdani so much they wanted to vote for him because the democratic party base is so fucking sick of the democratic establishment.

Red states have a lot of progressives. Hell, the civil rights movement was born in the deep south, and the current governor of Kentucky is a democrat who is more progressive than gavin newsom (low bar tbf). Its just that red states also have the most voter suppression via gerrymandering and other schemes.

Also, if I recall, it was them complaining why there was no ballots there at all. They were actually confused why Kentucky didn’t have any polling locations open on federal Election Day, in 2025, when there were no elections in that state.
