Attack Ads Now Part Of Gubernatorial Primary Race

ALAN LYTLE

Well, it’s happened.  Attack ads are now a component of the Democratic Gubernatorial primary race.  Last week a group with ties to Adam Edelen launched an ad highly critical of Kentucky Attorney General Andy Beshear while opponent Rocky Adkins continues to play up his appeal to rural voters.  In this week’s edition of Capital Chat WUKY’s Alan Lytle talks with Laura Cullen Glasscock, editor and publisher of the Kentucky Gazette, about the respective campaigns’ strategies, fundraising and messaging. *Note: This conversation was recorded before the release of incumbent Republican Governor Matt Bevin’s first TV ad of the primary.
