Republican Candidates Announce Endorsements

By Angela Hatton

Frankfort, KY – Two Republican U.S. Senate candidates are announcing their endorsements today. Secretary of State Trey Grayson has received endorsements from twenty-eight state legislators, including four in our region. They are Senator Ken Winters of Murray and Representatives Brent Housman of Paducah, Steve Rudy of West Paducah, and Myron Dorsett of Hopkinsville. Grayson's challenger, eye surgeon Rand Paul, says he hasn't asked for any endorsements from politicians because much of his base is for ousting career politicians from government. Paul did announce today that he's received an endorsement from conservative spokesperson former Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin.
