On the day after the 1990 general election, Nov. 7, Darrell Lear threw a campaign yard sign in the back of a truck on McDowell Road. He was cleaning up the estimated 700 yard signs throughout Bill Lear’s legislative district. Bill Lear, the state representative from the 79th District, defeated Ken Kearns to retain his seat in the state legislature. Lear served in the Kentucky General Assembly from 1985 to 1994.
