A poll released this week showed that Gov. Andy Beshear’s approval rating is on the rise in Kentucky.
The Democratic governor went from 55% approval in February 2021 to 60% approval this January, according to a statewide poll performed by Mason-Dixon Polling & Strategy.
The pollster also asked voters about Republican Sen. Rand Paul’s likely challenge from Democrat Charles Booker this election year. Paul had a 16-point advantage over Booker, 55% to 39% per the poll.
