Election Day 2023 will showcase a number of candidates holding unique and historical roles impacting each of the races in their own way.
As voters cast ballots in Mississippi, Kentucky and Virginia on Tuesday, many will have the opportunity to vote for candidates that hold unique roles impacting each race in different ways. One of those candidates, Republican Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron, his party's nominee for governor of the commonwealth, is the first Black gubernatorial nominee for any major party in Kentucky history.
Beshear has his own historical role in the race as one of the last remaining Democrat governors of a deep-red state. He also maintains one of the highest approval ratings for any governor in the country despite being the leader of largely Republican-leaning Kentucky. If he wins on Tuesday, he will have done so with the support of liberals, moderates and conservatives alike.
No Democrat has been elected to serve as governor of Mississippi since 1999, but Democrats have poured large sums of money into the race, seeing it as a potential pickup opportunity. Should any of these candidates win their races, history will be made. Get the latest updates from the 2024 campaign trail, exclusive interviews and more at our Fox News Digital election hub.
