Bill Johnson Drops out of Senate Race

By Rebecca Feldhaus

Elkton, KY – Kentucky U-S Senate candidate Bill Johnson withdrew his name from the race yesterday. Johnson sites disappointing numbers in local poles as impetus for his decision. He says he has no regrets and enjoyed his time campaigning. Johnson states he will do anything he can to support a Republican candidate for current Senator Jim Bunning's seat. However, he plans to remain neutral and will not endorse either Trey Grayson or Rand Paul in the GOP primary.
