UPDATE: In the Kentucky Senate Democratic primary race, Booker trails McGrath by a margin of just over 2,400 votes, with 81% of the state's precincts reporting Tuesday morning.
The Kentucky secretary of state said that 161,238 people voted in-person last Tuesday. By last Tuesday morning, 530,196 of the 867,842 ballots sent out before the election had already been returned. Any mail-in ballot postmarked by Tuesday will be counted, the Kentucky secretary of state's office said.
Booker's candidacy has received the support of progressive lawmakers and groups, while McGrath, is backed by several establishment Democrats including Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y."Medicare for All," the Green New Deal and universal basic income and campaigned against inequality and racial injustice, has repeatedly tweeted hopeful messages about the race in recent days.
