PPP Poll: Paul Leads Grayson 52-34 In GOP’s KY-SEN Primary

KY Sen. candidates Rand Paul (R) and Trey Grayson (R)

With just one day to go until the Republican Senate primary in Kentucky, Rand Paul still holds a big lead, according to a Public Policy Polling survey released this morning.

Paul leads Kentucky Secretary of State Trey Grayson 52-34 in the PPP survey.

The TPM Poll Average for Tuesday’s race shows Paul leading Grayson 42.3% to 25.3%.

Grayson has long been the Republican standard bearer in the race — winning Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell’s (R-KY) endorsement — while Paul has been the Tea Party favorite. But as Paul’s victory looks more and more likely, some Republicans — including McConnell — seem to be getting on the Paul train.
