The Jefferson County Board of Elections' plan for the upcoming special election to fill an open Kentucky Senate seat is still in limbo, and two elections officials are at odds over the reason behind it.Jefferson County Clerk Bobbie Holsclaw said she believes a key factor behind the plan put forward Tuesday not being approved was "political grandstanding."
