and that no vote was registered for him, but didn't know that "he" attempted to vote.

I thought they didnt want a special election? Plus they were afraid that Andy Beshear would attempt to appoint a DEM in spite of their recent state changes to disallow the governor (after the DEM was elected) to do so. Beshear could readily challenge that because it was passed in reaction to his win in a hostile red state senate. IOW, undisputed discriminatory legislation.
