For anyone still deciding how to vote in Kentucky’s gubernatorial race, here are a few reminders of positions Daniel Cameron’s TV ads keep carefully out of sight.

Despite now saying if elected he would sign an abortion bill allowing exceptions for rape or incest if the legislature passes one – which he knows they won’t – Cameron himself is opposed to allowing abortion or even birth control under any circumstances. Whatever he says now, he recently told a northern Kentucky group that he favored codifying personhood from the moment of fertilization; criminalizing abortion providers; and outlawing birth control measures such as implants, injections or standard birth control pills.

He sided with ousted Gov. Matt Bevin’s attempts to keep public records secret – including Bevin’s plans to upend public pensions. As attorney general, Cameron argued that public business is not subject to open records laws if it is conducted on personal – not state owned – computers and phones.

He has consistently associated himself with unpopular Bevin policies, including repealing Obamacare, reversing Beshear’s expansion of Medicaid, adding complex procedures and new work requirements to welfare applications, enacting anti-union laws and allowing people to carry concealed guns without a permit.

Aside from these Bevin holdovers, Cameron promises only to lower taxes, and we already know how that works: lavish benefits for the rich, and as little as he dares for the rest of us, at the expense of schools, infrastructure and social services.

Andy Beshear has been an outstanding governor for all Kentuckians, achieving expanded health care, record low unemployment and a string of budget surpluses. We’re doing well under his leadership. I think he deserves your vote.
