Poll Gives Lead To Mongiardo
KENTUCKY...
Lt. Gov. Daniel Mongiardo took a huge leap ahead, according to an independent poll released Sunday, as he continues his quest to become Kentucky’s next U.S. Senator. The poll shows Mongiardo with an 18 point lead over his biggest rival in the Democratic Primary, Attorney General Jack Conway. According to the poll, 45 percent of likely Democratic voters would vote for Mongiardo, a Perry County native, were the election held today, to 27 percent for Conway, a Jefferson County native. This latest poll echoes an internal poll released by the Mongiardo campaign in February, also showing Mongiardo with an 18 point lead over Conway. On the Republican side of the race, Bowling Green surgeon Rand Paul has also taken a big lead over his chief rival, Secretary of State Trey Grayson, as both continue to laud themselves as the bigger supporter of coal. According to the poll, Dr. Paul opened a 15 point lead over Grayson, with 42 percent of those polled reporting that they will vote for Paul, while 27 percent preferred Grayson.
