In an election for Governor of Kentucky today, 10/30/07, one week to the vote, Democrats remain as they have been for 5 months, poised for a take-away in the Kentucky Governor's contest. The Democratic ticket of Steve Beshear and Dan Mongiardo is at 60%, the incumbent Republican ticket of Ernie Fletcher and Robbie Rudolph is at 36%. Results are almost identical to a SurveyUSA poll released in July, which also had Fletcher at 36%.
