      "district_summary": "Kentucky's 2nd Congressional District covers the west-central portion of the state, including Bowling Green, Owensboro, Elizabethtown, and parts of eastern Louisville. It is home to approximately 766,000 constituents. The district is overwhelmingly White (84% non-Hispanic) with a median household income of $66,796 — above the state average but below the national median. The poverty rate is 14.7%. Only 23.8% of adults hold a bachelor's degree or higher, well below the national average. Homeownership stands at 70.4%. The economy is anchored by manufacturing (particularly automotive and aluminum), Fort Knox military installation (employing ~22,000), healthcare, and Western Kentucky University. The district is strongly Republican (Trump won 64.5% in 2024). Guthrie has held the seat since 2009, and no incumbent has lost re-election in this district since 1884.",
