Decision Desk HQ projects that Democrat Zach Dembo will win Kentucky’s 6th Congressional District, according to Bloomberg and The Hill. The Hill reports that Dembo led Republican Ralph Alvarado 55 percent to 41 percent with 92 percent of votes counted, and says the seat is a Republican-held seat that Democrats are flipping. Townhall reports that the seat was held by Andy Barr, who won election to the Senate the same evening. The call is a projection from partial returns, not a certified result.
