I'm Kelly Craft and I am running for Governor of Kentucky because I know our best days are ahead of us.
Watch my story and join our conservative movement

Pleasure to meet with Ambassador
@bikhim
Hsiao of

! We discussed ways of strengthening US/Taiwan ties. I’ll treasure this photo she gave me of the Grand Hotel in Taipei, lit up with “USA” to thank the United States for donating 2.5 million
#COVID19Vaccine
doses. 🇺🇸🇹🇼
There is so much going on in our world & nationally, but we must not forget our brothers & sisters in Eastern Kentucky as they rebuild. Together we will
#MeetTheMoment
& help them come back stronger than ever.
So pleased to see the U.S. is easing restrictions on diplomatic meetings with
#Taiwan
officials. I look forward to more exchanges between America and Taiwan, like the one I had last September with Ambassador James Lee of
@TaiwanInNewYork
.
Democracy prevails in Taiwan! Congratulations to President-elect Lai Ching-te and Vice President-elect Hsiao Bi-khim on their victory.
#TaiwanElections
I promise you this - I will always have your back. Parents are the only ones who should decide whether their children get the COVID-19 vaccine, not bureaucrats. Under my watch, there will not be a COVID-19 vaccine mandate in our schools.
It is true I am disappointed this evening, but I am far from sad. These last eight months I have come to know my beloved state I love — even after my whole life here — as I would have never known it without our campaign.
Good news!
#Taiwan
can always count on its friendship with the United States.
🇺🇸🇹🇼
#VaccineDiplomacy
U.S. triples vaccines for Taiwan with 2.5 million-dose shipment
1/2 Happy to celebrate 🇹🇼 National Day. An important time to reflect on
#Taiwan
’s achievements over the last year. Some may ask, in these hyper-partisan times, how both Republicans and Democrats can embrace similar policies on Taiwan.
Happy to see bipartisan legislation calling on
@WHO
to include
#Taiwan
in the World Health Assembly. Taiwan has been a global leader in combating COVID-19, and the world could benefit from its expertise. Beijing should not be able to block Taiwan's participation!
#LetTaiwanHelp
When I'm governor, I'll fire Kentucky's education commissioner on day one, empower parents, and ensure our teachers can teach real knowledge and skills instead of being forced to promote wokeism and critical race theory.
#KYgov
The U.S. will donate 750,000 COVID-19 vaccine doses to Taiwan as part of a plan to share shots globally, Senator Tammy Duckworth said after arriving in Taipei on a three-hour visit with fellow Senators Dan Sullivan and Christopher Coons
This is absurd. These are bathing suits for children! Our kids deserve to be kids. We need to stand up to the woke corporations pushing this agenda.
@Riley_Gaines_
I've been to the border, and let me tell you it is wide open. We may not be able to build a wall around Kentucky, but every state is a border state now. As our next Governor, I will put an end to the fentanyl crisis that is tearing our communities apart.
Every child should be given the opportunity to learn and reach their full potential without having immoral woke ideologies forced upon them. We should be teaching our children the ABCs, not the CRTs.
I’m honored and grateful to have the support of my friend
@GovRonDeSantis
. He sets the example for Republican leaders around the nation because he delivers bold, conservative results.
There is no reason for any citizen to tolerate being assaulted and then barricaded for hours. I stand with my friend
@Riley_Gaines_
, and I am proud of you and how you are a true champion defending women’s sports!
#Taiwan
stands with democracies around the world in the face of authoritarian expansion. As long as we work together, our shared values of freedom, human rights & the rule of law will prevail.
#CDS2021
Wishing one and all a wonderful Winter Solstice #冬至. I hope you stay warm & celebrate in the traditional
#Taiwanese
fashion with a delicious bowl of sticky rice dumplings, or "tangyuan" 湯圓.
Fortunately, prayer knows no boundaries. On this
#GoodFriday
, a day of solitude, we are reminded of the strength of prayer and the selfless sacrifices of Christ. We remember the first responders in
#Taiwan
, who are on the front lines of this accident, and the families impacted.
Taiwan is a critical partner to the United States and a democratic success story. Taiwan should have meaningful participation in the
@UN
system, especially as we face an unprecedented number of global challenges.
Our thoughts are with our friends in Taiwan in the aftermath of one of the strongest earthquakes in two decades. Grateful for the bravery and dedication of the first responders tirelessly working to aid those in need.
Today, along with my husband Joe and my running mate
@maxwellwise
, I officially filed to run for Governor. This race is about restoring Kentucky’s Promise.
We need a governor who realizes that it’s patently unfair to let biological males compete against
#Kentucky
’s next generation of female stars. Beshear is no different than Biden and the rest.
🚨WATCH🚨
“We are going to provide something you all haven’t had in a long time when it comes to congressional investigations: 𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞.”
@RepJamesComer
details evidence of Joe Biden’s involvement in his family’s shady business schemes.
Accountability is coming.
#Taiwan
celebrates Oct. 10 National Day with great confidence, pride & hope for the future. Watch "2021—Taiwan, Bringing People Together" & see why those who love freedom & democracy
#StandWithTaiwan
🇹🇼. There's strength in unity & no country, not even Taiwan, is truly an island.
Great to see Taiwan Rep.
@bikhim
yesterday. As Secretary of State, I worked to support Taiwan — a fellow democracy — in the face of unrelenting pressure. The U.S. shares with Taiwan the core values of freedom, democracy, and a free market economy.
Proud to announce
@maxwellwise
as my running mate in Campbellsville! He is committed to Kentucky, a person of impeccable integrity, and a STRONG conservative.
It’s been an honor to serve the U.S. at the
@UN
. Wishing Godspeed to my successor and to all engaged in the important work of diplomacy. Let’s all stay in touch and keep the faith.
@kellycraftky
Speaking to the
#KetagalanForum
: To me,
#Taiwan
is a personal relationship, based on friendships & on the principles we hold so dear – a shared commitment to democracy, freedom, allies & values. The reason I stand w/Taiwan is connected to the very things that make me an American.
718 days after
@JoeBiden
took office , 3.5M illegals cross and 10K lbs of fentanyl seized , Biden is finally visiting the unsecured border.
We must protect KY from the increase in drugs & crime resulting from Biden’s failed policies that
@GovAndyBeshear
supports.
Words can not touch this tragic accident that took place in
#Taiwan
.
Each loved one was a gift filled with the promise of a future. One life lost is one too many, and to the families of passengers who were killed or injured, we stand strong with you & pray.
Unconscionable. Energy security is national security. Kentucky knows that coal keeps the lights on. As your Governor, I’ll never put our energy security in danger.
Scott County lost a hero today. Please join Joe and me with prayers for Sheriff Deputy Caleb Conley along with his wife and their children.
This is a reminder that the Scott County Sheriff’s Office puts their safety at risk everyday to protect their community.
🚨 New Ad 🚨
Every state is a border state now thanks to Joe Biden’s failure of leadership. Our open borders are bringing Fentanyl right here to Kentucky and our leaders are not addressing the problem. It’s time to act.
Please join my friend Senator Ted Cruz and me at our get out the vote rallies next weekend!
#TeamCraft
has the energy and momentum going into May 16 and we would love to see you in Louisville and Richmond 🇺🇸💪🏼
If you’re ready to:
Reduce inflation
Save our kids from woke education in school
Lock up drug dealers and criminals
Protect the life of the unborn
Then join me and cancel the radical Left - vote Republican today.
Joe and I are proud of the races our GOP candidates ran for Kentucky. Kentuckians are blessed with strong Republican delegations who continue to uphold our values in Frankfort and in Washington.
