Kentucky's official 2015 Republican gubernatorial primary results show Comer finished second to Matt Bevin, so the gubernatorial campaign promise tied to that bid was not delivered in office.

Kentucky (KY) – 1st, Republican. Oath of Office: Jan. 03, 2025.

Comer is currently serving in the U.S. House, which is later federal service but does not show any enactment of the earlier governor-campaign tax-credit plan.

This promise was tied to Comer's 2015 Kentucky gubernatorial campaign tax plan, but he lost the Republican primary and therefore never held the office needed to implement it. His later service in the U.S. House does not show enactment of this specific state-level proposal or elimination of the cited tax breaks. Because the promised outcome was not delivered and later unrelated federal service does not materially complete it, the claim is best scored as never fulfilled.
