- toomuchtodo 7y agoWas just referenced in a Ditch Mitch PAC marketing email that went out an hour ago. I've contacted their team to ask for a citation and will report back with it when I receive it. EDIT @ 1563753486: http://kentuckytoday.com/stories/mcgrath-comes-out-firing-in-battle-for-mcconnells-seat,20426 http://kentuckytoday.com/stories/mcgrath-comes-out-firing-in... “Change Research conducted a poll of 1,629 likely 2020 voters in Kentucky from June 15-16 and found that retired Marine Amy McGrath is already essentially tied with Senator Mitch McConnell in a hypothetical 2020 general election Senate matchup, despite half of Kentucky voters not even having an opinion of her yet. If the election were held today, 47% would vote for McConnell compared to 45% for McGrath, a deficit well within the margin of error. Ayoub added, “Senator McConnell is extremely unpopular in Kentucky, with 22% viewing him favorably and 61% viewing him unfavorably. Even among Republicans, roughly as many view him favorably (40%) as unfavorably (39%). This stands in stark contrast to other prominent Republicans like President Trump, who is overall well-liked in Kentucky (58% favorable, 40% unfavorable) and nearly universally beloved among Republicans (92% favorable, 4% unfavorable)."
