Gov. Steve Beshear is planning to do his best Publishers Clearing House impression as he heads to western Kentucky Wednesday to deliver oversized checks and make state transportation and other project announcements along side three incumbent House Democrats who face tough re-election fights on Nov. 4.
Beshear will join Rep. Jim Glenn, D-Owensboro, at noon in Owensboro Wednesday to announce a County Agriculture Investment Program for Daviess County, Green River Area Beef Improvement Group, the governor’s office announced late Tuesday. Other local legislators will also be on hand, including Republican Sen. Joe Bowen and Democratic Rep. Tommy Thompson.
Glenn is in a tough reelection battle for the third election season in a row, facing Republican Alan Braden, a well-known former Owensboro city commissioner, for the votes of the 13th House District.
Beshear joined Glenn ahead of the 2012 election when he announced $550,000 for a 15-mile-long trail project in his district in Oct. of 2012. Glenn won that election by 251 votes. In 2010, Glenn narrowly earned reelection by 206 votes.
After the noon stop in Owensboro, Beshear will then move on to Kuttuwa at 3 p.m. to announce funding for projects in the Lake Barkley area alongside Democratic Rep. Will Coursey of Symsonia. Republican Sen. Stan Humphries of Caidz will also be on hand for the announcement.
The governor is expected to make announcements on funding to the Lyon County trail and amphitheater projects.
Coursey is in dueling lawsuits with a former LRC staffer who claimed she was improperly transferred after complaining about inappropriate comments she attributed to the lawmaker. Coursey faces Keith Travis, a Republican from Benton, in the race.

If only we could defeat Stumbo and Grimes at the same time, the Lundergan group would be at their weakest point perhaps ever. It's a tall order to take the House but this behavior indicates the other side is at least a bit nervous...good sign.
The demorodents are nervous. If their rodent sized brains were functional they would be terrified.
Or not. Demorodents multiply like, well, rodents.
