- Larry_Forgy abstract "Lawrence E. Forgy, known as Larry Forgy (born 1939), is a Republican politician and former candidate for public office from Lexington, Kentucky. Forgy announced that he would seek the Republican gubernatorial nomination in 1987 but soon withdrew from the race, citing fundraising difficulties. The party then tapped State Representative John R. Harper of Bullitt County as its nominee, but Harper carried only 5 of the 120 counties against the Democrat businessman, Wallace Wilkinson.Forgy ran for the Republican gubernatorial nomination in 1991 but lost in the primary to then U.S. Representative Larry J. Hopkins, also of Lexington. Forgy again ran for governor in 1995, but he was defeated in the general election by Democrat Paul E. Patton. In 1999, Forgy ran unsuccessfully for the Kentucky Supreme Court but lost in a special election to James E. Keller. He was reportedly considering running in the United States Senate election in Kentucky, 2008, but he did not file as a candidate for the office, held by Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Jefferson County. Forgy had been an early McConnell backer when the then county judge in Jefferson County was first elected to the Senate in 1984. In 2004, Forgy was co-chair of Bryan Coffman's unsuccessful race for Central Kentucky's 6th congressional district. Coffman lost to Democrat Ben Chandler, grandson of former Governor and U.S. Senator Happy Chandler.Previously, Forgy has been a practicing attorney and the president of the non-profit organization, Health Kentucky. Forgy is a former Republican national committeeman, the Kentucky chairman of Ronald W. Reagan's successful presidential election bids, vice chairman of Kentucky Council Higher Education, chairman of the Finance Committee of the University of Kentucky Board of Trustees, and general counsel and budget director in the administration of former Governor Louie B. Nunn.Forgy attended the University of Kentucky at Lexington, where he was a member of Delta Tau Delta social fraternity. He transferred to George Washington University in Washington, D.C. from which he received both a bachelor's and law degree. While in law school at GWU, he became friends with Democratic Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada, McConnell's counterpoint in the Senate.In 2011, Forgy stated that the only reason Kentucky Governor Steven Beshear picked Jerry Abramson to be his running mate was "to attract New York and Hollywood Jewish money" for the campaign.As of 2012, Forgy was self-employed as an attorney in Frankfort, Kentucky.".
