Rasmussen Reports
As for Obama, this is one of those rare states (i.e. the Appalachian ones) in which he runs weaker than other Democrats (like Clinton) might have. Obama garners only 29 percent of the white vote, and with African Americans making up only about nine percent of the electorate, that's a recipe for a wipeout. (Kerry won 35 percent of the Kentucky white vote in 2004.) McCain continues to enjoy the support of 79% of the state�s Republicans, the same as last month, but his support among Democrats has fallen to 28% from 33% in June. Fifty-six percent (56%) of Democrats, up 6% in a month, and 15% of GOP voters, roughly the same for the second month in a row, now back Obama. Among unaffiliated voters, Obama also has gained ground: McCain still leads 45% to 38%, but in June he was ahead 44% to 30%. The Republican is still ahead with both men and women voters, but again his leads are narrowing. He continues to hold a sizable 54% to 36% margin among men, but that�s down from 57% to 28% a month ago. His four-point lead among women is down to three points. A similar pattern is evident in the favorability ratings of the two candidates. McCain is viewed favorably by 60% of Kentucky voters, compared to 63% in June, and unfavorably by 35%, up an insignificant 1% in the past month. Obama was looked upon favorably by 41% in June, but now that number is up to 48%. While his unfavorables are at 50%, a daunting number for any candidate, that�s down from 57% a month ago.
