Who's The Most Partisan Member of KY's Congressional Delegation?
The difference between John Yarmuth and Ben Chandler.
According to Washington Post analysis, Rep. John Yarmuth (D - KY / San Francisco) is the most partisan member of KY's congressional delegation, voting with Nancy Pelosi 97.1% of the time!
Ben Chandler is a close second with 95.2% partisanship, but as I documented here a few months ago, there are big differences between Rep. John Yarmuth (D - KY / San Francisco) and Rep. Ben Chandler (D - KY). One notable exception came when Yarmuth voted not to condemn MoveOn.org's "Betray Us" ad which criticized the man who has implemented relative calm in Iraq, General David Petraeus, while Chandler cast the sensible vote that the majority of his constituents would have cast.
The majority of Louisvillians would have voted to condemn the MoveOn.org ad. John Yarmuth did not.
Of course, the majority of Louisvillians would have affirmed the importance of Christianity and Christmas after paying Islam, Hinduism, Ramadan, and Diwali that respect. Yarmuth did not do that either. Erwin Roberts called him out on it yesterday.
