The unofficial primary election 2022 results are in. Results still have to be certified by the state, which will likely happen by Friday.

Boyle County Clerk Trille Bottom said there was a 19.15% voter turnout. Results came in quickly, and by 8:00 p.m. on Tuesday, all Boyle County precincts had reported votes and the totals had been counted.

Rand Paul won the Republican primary by a landslide. Charles Booker became the first Black Kentuckian to receive the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate.

The race for District Judge of Boyle and Mercer counties will be between Patrick F. Barsotti and Stacy Elizabeth Coontz. Danville Mayor candidate Denise Terry will not be running in the general election, leaving the race to be between James “J H” Atkins and James Morris Hunn.

The Danville commissioner who will not be running with the other eight is Robert Earl Robinson.

Magistrate District 2 incumbent Ronald Short has been outvoted by Paula Bodner.
