My itemized deductions in federal are not transferring to state (KY). Why?

While it is possible that there is a transfer error, it is possible that there is another explanation as well.

Most itemized deductions have been eliminated in Kentucky this year.  The only ones that are still allowed are home mortgage interest and charitable contributions.  All other deductions (including gambling losses, medical expenses, and real estate taxes), are no longer allowed.  Thus, if your itemized deductions under this new legislation are less than $2530 for an individual filer or a married couple with one income, or $5060 if a married couple with two incomes, you will not see any benefit from claiming itemized deductions on your Kentucky Return.

The following link discusses these and other KY Income tax Law Changes

If this is the case, it explains why the deductions did not transfer.  However, if you have more qualified deductions than the amounts I comment in the previous paragraph, please comment for further assistance.
