Daniel Cameron wins Kentucky attorney general race in historic victory

Republican Daniel Cameron was elected Kentucky's next attorney general Tuesday — the first African American to ever win a race for the office and the first Republican to do so in over 70 years.

Cameron, a 33-year-old first time candidate from Louisville, won over 57% of the vote, beating Democratic nominee Greg Stumbo — the former speaker of the House attempting a political comeback after losing his seat three years ago.

The Republican will replace Democrat Andy Beshear as attorney general, who finished his race for governor with 5,000 more votes than incumbent Matt Bevin. Beshear declared victory, though Bevin said he would not yet concede the race.
