PPP released a poll of Kentucky registered voters yesterday. And in a state that gave Trump a tremendous win over Clinton last year-- 1,202,971 (62.5%) to 628,854 (32.7%)-- his job approval rating is nothing like it is in most the country. Fully 60% of registered voters approve of the way he's doing his job. Only 36% disapprove. In light of that, though, this is odd:And when asked if they approve or disapprove of the local version of Obamacare, Kynect, 34% approve, 28% disapprove and 38% are unsure. Asked if they approved or disapproved the healthcare bill rejected by the Senate, just 27% approved, while 49% said they disapproved. Here are some other questions on Trump's agenda where the voters who approve of the job Trump is doing, don't approve of the specifics of his agenda, although it is extremely doubtful if they're aware it is his agenda.PPP also asked if the respondents approved or disapproved of the state's two Republican senators, Miss McConnell and Rand Paul. Neither fared well, but McConnell is off the charts! Not even 1 in 5 registered voters think he's doing a good job. Lucky for him, he's not up for reelection until 2020 because the poll indicates he would have a tough time being reelected.There's no Senate race in Kentucky next year but it looks like one Republican, Andy Barr, may be in trouble. PPP didn't poll his race but there is a strong roster of Democrats jousting for who will get the right to challenge him in the general election. Lexington Mayor Jim Gray, who hasn't officially declared yet, looks like the strongest candidate, although Amy McGrath has released another strong video that has kept her in contention even without taking any positions on any issues, except in the vaguest and most uncontroversial way. Here's her new clip, which has almost 40,000 views. The first one had 1.3 million.
