Black Tea Partier Elected Kentucky Lieutenant Governor

Yesterday, I noted that Matt Bevin (R) has been elected governor of Kentucky.  Today, I learned that his running mate, the Lieutenant Governor-elect, is likewise a Republican who had Tea Party support, and that she is black.  In fact, Jenean Hampton has become the first black American elected to a state-wide office in Kentucky.  This development, of course, will only confirm the left's claim that the Tea Party is a movement dominated by white males.  (Psst, that last sentence, in case anyone is wondering, is a bit of light-hearted sarcasm.)

To learn more about LT-elect Hampton, go to MSNBC, The Daily Signal and National Review.
