Nothing To See Here, Move Along Now
« Politics Of Personal Destruction | Main | Inside The Poll Numbers »We have received the latest round of polling from Survey USA and the Lexington Herald on the state of Kentucky's Democratic primary for US Senate. And surprise surprise, the poll numbers are virtually unchanged from last week.
| USA | LH | |
|---|---|---|
| Lunsford | 41% | 43% |
| Fischer | 23% | 23% |
This race is virtually over. The political oxygen in the state is being sucked up by the Obama and Clinton presidential primary. Neither candidate will be able to gain much traction with the media between now and the primary. Which means Lunsford will win the primary easily. My prediction a week out is that Lunsford will under perform and end up just below 40% of the vote. I think Fischer will over perform, but come up well short with around 30% of the vote. David Williams will get 10% of the vote. The rest of the candidates will get between 2-3% of the vote.
