Kentucky Senate Poll Shows Mitch McConnell Tied With Alison Lundergan Grimes

[Pragdem]

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) is tied with Kentucky Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes (D) in a hypothetical 2014 Senate race, according to a poll conducted for a Democratic super PAC.

In the survey conducted by Democratic firm Public Policy Polling on behalf of Senate Majority PAC, the super PAC backing Democratic Senate candidates, McConnell and Grimes are tied at 45 percent each. The poll also shows the Senate Minority Leader with a 44 percent approval and 47 percent disapproval rating. In contrast, 34 percent of voters approve of Grimes, with 24 percent disapproving and 42 percent not sure.

The new poll, released Monday, shows a slight bump for Grimes, who trailed McConnell by four points in an April PPP poll.

1. I have utter faith in the election officials in Kentucky

(no doubt Right Wing Cons) will make sure McConnell wins, no matter what the cost or corruption necessary. Usually it isn't that hard, since they've been fixing elections for decades, and all officials involved in certifying are all loyal CONS. And that's the way it is in many of not most states with a red leaning leadership.

2. This is encouraging for a show of sanity in Kentucky!
