The last 4-5 days has really shown us how great a lead Paul may have in this election over Conway. A poll released this morning by Public Policy Polling, indicates that Rand Paul is leading Jack Conway 55-40. On Saturday, a separate poll performed by CN-2/Braun-Research, indicated that Paul was ahead 47-39, and another poll, by Rasmussen Reports on Friday, showed Paul ahead of Conway 53-41.
Paul has held a rather significant lead in Kentucky, going all the way back to April. The 47 year old ophthalmologist is new on the political scene. Although he is the son of the former presidential candidate, and member of the House of Representatives in Texas, Ron Paul, Rand only entered politics full swing last year. Rand received attention during his father’s presidential run in 2008 after making numerous political speeches on his behalf. Conway, who is the current Attorney General in Kentucky, has put up a good fight, however, this year seems to be leaning more towards Republican candidates.
