Kentucky Republicans are picking a nominee to challenge incumbent Democratic Gov. Andy Beshear in Tuesday's primary elections
FILE - Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron, left, and Kentucky gubernatorial candidate Kelly Craft prepare for the start of the Kentucky Gubernatorial GOP Primary Debate in Lexington, Ky., May 1, 2023. Kentucky's crowded Republican primary campaign for governor comes to a close on May 16, wrapping up a bitter competition between two rivals with ties to former President Donald Trump who dominated the race.
Incumbent Democratic Gov. Andy Beshear, who is seeking reelection to a second term, awaits the winner of the GOP primary for what’s sure to be a tumultuous general election bid. The November race, one of just a few top contests nationally during an off-year election, will be closely watched for signs of the mood of conservative voters.
Cameron, meanwhile, has touted his record of going to court to challenge the pandemic-era policies of the incumbent governor. He is the state’s first Black attorney general and would become the state’s first Black governor if elected.
