A new statewide poll released this week shows Kentucky Democratic Governor Andy Beshear leading his Republican challenger Daniel Cameron.
The poll – conducted by the Republican-leaning firm Public Opinion Strategies for the Prichard Committee, an education-focused Kentucky nonprofit – shows Beshear up 10 points on Cameron with just over three months to go until the general election.
It projects Beshear capturing 52% of the vote compared to Cameron’s 42% with the incumbent having cross-party appeal.
The poll also indicated Beshear’s approval rating is 63% across the board with 38% of Republican voters and 60% of Independent voters polled approving of his performance. Among the 800 voters polled, just 35% disapprove of the job Beshear’s doing in office.

hes def fooling some people....the idiots.
Bevin self-immolated but Cameron is a legitimate threat to one day take over the party. I can't see Mitch allowing that to happen.
McConnell in KY, Bush in Texas, Romney in Utah, McCain in AZ, Kemp to a degree in Georgia, these are all Uniparty candidates and are the power in their respective states. They have destroyed the GOP for people like me.
As usual, completely nonresponsive to what I actually wrote.
800 voters or 800 LIKELY voters ?
If the poll is the former, you can dismiss it out of hand. Cameron will win.
There are folks here in Kentucky who are definitely not RINO’s like Lee Watts(look him up) who are expressing concern about Cameron’s ability to win this.
I will be voting for Cameron in November but I suspect he will lose by about 6 or 7 points.
Cognative dissonance is everywhwre on both sides and voters here are largely morons.
I receive a KY TV station, and am in KY often, and Beshear is running ads featuring a (self stated) Pubbie businessman promo’ing how good Beshear has been for business and employment. Plus he’s attractive to the soccer Moms, the public education establishment for sure, and has done a generally creditable job when it comes to natural disasters and such. The Transportation Cabinet does a pretty reasonable job on the roads (just cross from KY to TN on most anything besides Interstates in Western KY and the state of TN’s roads is by comparison almost scary-bad). That plus the legislature nuetering Beshear on most social issues (and voters know that’s likely to continue)... For those not strongly conservative, why vote for a guy who hasn’t proven he can run anything but a legal office, and has lost most of the cases he’s brought vs. Beshear’s Administration?
