When leaners are included in the new totals, Paul attracts 51% of the vote, while Conway picks up 41%. This is the first Rasmussen Reports Election 2010 survey in Kentucky to include leaners. Leaners are those who initially indicate no preference for either of the candidates but answer a follow-up question and say they are leaning towards a particular candidate.


Paul, an ophthalmologist and son of Texas Congressman Ron Paul, is viewed Very Favorably by 26% of Kentucky voters and Very Unfavorably by 19%.
Reviews for Conway, the state’s attorney general, are 19% Very Favorable and 18% Very Unfavorable.


Seventy-three percent (73%) of Paul’s supporters say that they are certain to vote for him in November. Sixty-three percent (63%) of Conway’s supporters say the same.


Thirty-four percent (34%) of voters in the state favor the requirement in the new national health care bill that every American must buy or obtain health insurance. Sixty-three percent (63%) oppose that requirement.This includes 18% who Strongly Favor it and 49% who are Strongly Opposed.

Just hope the media lets up a little. It's a long way from over.

After nonstop media attacks for the last three months Rand's support hasn't dented a bit. I don't think it matters at all.

I sure hope you are right. I won't believe it's a done deal until I hear his opponents concession speech.

Hopefully the momentum will continue with Rand getting 60% of total votes on election day.
