Downard Stays Competitive With Abramson
« Northup Continues to Dissect Amateur Yarmuth | Main | Fletcher Cleared Again »Republican Kelly Downard raised $230,000 in a fund raiser yesterday. This money will allow him to make a late push in television advertisement in his attempt to unseat Abramson.
I have been impressed so far with Downard's grass roots efforts. Especially his ability and desire to campaign door to door across the city. Now he has to follow it up with an effective television advertisement campaign to reinforce his message. He is definitely outworking the Abramson campaign. Even so, I don't know if it will be enough to win this fall.
But as long as he can keep the race close, it will make it extremely difficult for Abramson to run for Governor next year. How can he win state wide if he can barely carry Jefferson County? That is good for Kentucky.
