As discussed before, it's pretty much a done deal that Chandler gets the 'Rats nod. On the GOP side, I see Rebecca Jackson is getting a wee bit of momentum. I don't know much about her, but perhaps she might not be such a bad candidate against Chandler (especially given all the sex scandal business, a refreshing change). Nunn seems to be slipping back, and I just don't see him taking the nomination at all (a lowly State Rep. competing against a prominent Congressman and high ranking Louisville pol is a tough one). If Jackson is RINO, then she should be crushed by Fletcher, otherwise, I may root for the underdog here ! :-)

Not much support for Moore-Bell with only two and a half months to go until the primary. I don't think Nunn has much appeal beyond his name (daddy was Gov) and Fletcher should be able to hold on unless he makes an ass of himself.

A lot can happen in this race, still 2 1/2 months to primary day. There are very strong regional differences on the GOP side, which makes the election more unpredictable. (By the way, thanks for posting this poll -- I was the pollster who conducted it).
