Primary Heats Up In The Mountains
KENTUCKY...
Opponents for the Democrat nomination for the U. S. Senate seat surrendered by Senator Jim Bunning mined for votes in one another's backyards. Daniel Mongiardo (mon-gee-ar-do) appealed for voter support in Louisville last week, while Jack Conway picked Hazard for a campaign stop. Campaign literature released by the Mongiardo group showed the Lt. Governor leading by as much as 18 points, while previous polls conducted by independent pollsters suggest the race is much closer. The two square off in the Democrat primary on May 18. And while Mongiardo was touting support from leaders in his opponent’s hometown, Conway announced on Monday that he is planning a return trip to Mongiardo’s backyard of Eastern Kentucky. According to a press advisory from the campaign released on Monday, Conway will be making stops in several local counties to talk about jobs and the future of coal in Kentucky.
