Democrats flip Kentucky's 6th US House District, sending Zach Dembo to Congress

In a nationally watched race, Central Kentucky voters on Tuesday flipped the 6th Congressional District from red to blue by electing Democrat Zach Dembo to the U.S. House over Republican Ralph Alvarado.

It was Kentucky’s only competitive federal race in 2026. Dembo claimed victory at his watch party in downtown Lexington Tuesday just prior to 9:30 p.m., holding nearly a 10-point margin at that point with about 80% of votes counted. “What we have accomplished tonight is more than just an election,” Dembo told a room full of his cheering supporters. “It’s more than just flipping this seat or changing which party controls Congress.

Washington isn’t working, and it’s time to send an independent voice from Kentucky, whose family has been here for nine generations, to clean it up.” “This race was written off as solid Republican, but we knew what all those folks didn’t, which is the hardworking folks here in
