Beshear Up Big in Re-Election Bid
Posted: Tue Aug 30, 2011 10:59 amBeshear Up Big in Re-Election Bid
A new Public Policy Polling survey finds Gov. Steve Beshear (D) leading challenger David Williams (R) by 27 points, 55% to 28%.
"More than anything else this is because Williams is one of the worst candidates a party's put forth in a plausibly competitive Gubernatorial race in recent memory. Only 21% of voters have a favorable opinion of him to 54% who view him negatively. Even with Republicans he's barely seen positively by a 41/29 margin and with Democrats (9/70) and independents (16/55) there are virtually no voters with a favorable view."
