FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) — Among the races that will be decided in Kentucky on Election Day are party nominations for a U.S. Senate seat currently held by Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and a contentious primary for U.S. Representative in the Fourth District.
Two Democrats have risen to the forefront in the Senate race: retired Marine fighter pilot Amy McGrath, who has raised the most money to challenge McConnell, and progressive state Rep. Charles Booker, who’s been gaining momentum recently with several key endorsements.
In the House race, attorney Todd McMurtry is posing a strong challenge to Republican incumbent Thomas Massie.
