Kim Davis just became a Republican so she can run for re-election as county clerk

By Jeff Taylor · Tuesday, January 9, 2018

Kim Davis, the Kentucky magistrate who launched to ignoble infamy when she refused to grant marriage licenses to same-sex couples in 2015, citing her religious beliefs, has filed for re-election.

The Associated Press reported on Monday that Davis filed last week, according to documents on the Secretary of State’s website. She announced her plans to run for re-election back in November.

Davis spent five days in jail for her refusal to do her job. The state later changed the law to remove clerks’ names from the licenses.

Four Democrats have filed for the seat as well, including David Ermold, who was denied a marriage license, along with his now-husband David Moore.

Even though she doesn't fit the profile of a Fox woman. She's not skinny or blonde.

Just because she didn't have an "R" next to her name doesn't mean she wasn't already part of the party of bigots and morons.
