KENTUCKY
Your
complete directory of Kentucky candidates for Governor, United
State Senator and Congress in the current election cycle ... state
political parties ... the official state election office ... and
state news sources.
"Your
handicapping of likely candidates is remarkably accurate. In fact,
if I want to verify a rumor, I often check Politics1 first. Maintaining
the inside scoop for all 50 states is quite a feat ... Other Secretaries
of State and state election directors have expressed similar sentiments."
-- Secretary of State John Y. Brown III (2002)
