Democratic Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear faced sharp criticism this week after reports revealed his administration sent thousands of dollars in disaster relief funds to the wrong people.
Beshear was also slammed by the Republican challengers hoping to unseat him in the November election, including state Attorney General"This is just another example of gross mismanagement by the Beshear administration," Gus Herbert, Cameron's campaign manager, told Fox."What's even worse is that the governor himself asked hard-working Kentuckians to be charitable with their money, and it's clear now that these donations didn't always go where they were needed most.
"It's time we have a Governor who knows how to run the most basic functions of government without making people's lives worse off. We need a Governor with the executive experience of running one of the largest agencies in the commonwealth, not someone who spends his time in court with frivolous lawsuits," he added.
"Thousands of generous people stepped up to help Kentuckians impacted by devastating storms. Andy Beshear has repeatedly patted himself on the back, but in reality, hundreds of thousands of dollars in payments that we know of were incorrectly distributed to people during an election year who weren’t impacted. Gov. Beshear needs to come clean and answer important questions about the situation," she said.
