Matt Bevin's Daughter Brittiney Bevin - Learn Everything About Her!
Matt Bevin is the current Governor of the state of Kentucky, and he is only the third Republican to take the Governor’s office in Kentucky since the end of the Second World War. The Conservative Republican rode the outsider horse, and after unsuccessfully mounting a Senatorial race against Mitch McConnell, Matt took the Governor’s office in 2015.
In his attempt to become Governor, Matt went up against Jack Conway, who was linked with President Obama (extremely unpopular in Kentucky). Matt won and took office from two terms, Governor Steve Beshear. After four years in office, the Governor was ousted by Steve Beshear’s son Andy Beshear.
