3:52 PM PT: KY-Gov: With about 3 percent of precincts in, Bevin leads Hal Heiner 34-31, with Comer at 26. What's giving Heiner a sudden boost is his native Jefferson County, where he used to serve on the metro county council.
3:55 PM PT: KY-Gov: The commonwealth's second largest county is almost all in.
90% in Fayette ... Bevin 32, Comer 29, Heiner 29. #kygov Reminder: Moffett beat David WIlliams in Fayette in 2011 primary. #kygov

4:02 PM PT: KY-Gov: Polls have closed in the remainder of Kentucky. With 5 percent reporting, Bevin leads Heiner 38-29, with Comer at 26. Per this interactive map from the Courier Journal, Bevin is doing well in Northern Kentucky while Heiner is romping in the Louisville area, and Comer is taking some rural areas. Too early to draw many conclusions.
4:05 PM PT: KY-Gov: The Courier-Journal is ahead in results. With 14 percent in, they give Bevin a slim 35-34 margin over Heiner, with Comer at 24. The Louisville area is giving Heiner a huge lift, and he's posting a few small leads in rural Eastern Kentucky. And to no one's surprise, the Democratic primary has been called for Jack Conway.
4:15 PM PT: KY-Gov: 21 percent in and Bevin up to 35-32 lead over Heiner, Comer at 26.
4:19 PM PT: Jacksonville Mayor: With 43 percent in (they count fast!) GOP challenger Lenny Curry has a small 51-49 lead over Democratic incumbent Alvin Brown.
4:28 PM PT: Jacksonville Mayor: Via Matthew Isabell, Brown running behind Democratic registration in early vote. Bad sign.
4:29 PM PT: The liveblog continues here.
