Kentucky’s annual Fancy Farm picnic is often considered the premier political event in the Commonwealth. It attracts people from all walks of life. One first-time attendee said it was not exactly what he expected.
University of Kentucky Political Scientist Steven Voss has kept his finger on the pulse of Commonwealth politics for years, but until this past Saturday had never been to Fancy Farm. Voss said early in the day many locals gathered at one end of the picnic site for bingo and other games.
