Majority Leader McConnell, the longest-serving senator from Kentucky in history, first entered the Senate in 1985.
With less than 50 days until the election on November 3, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, a Kentucky Republican, looks well positioned to fend off his Democratic challenger, former Marine fighter pilot Amy McGrath.
McConnell, the longest-serving senator from Kentucky in U.S. history, first entered the Senate back in 1985. Although McGrath has brought inin campaign contributions to defeat McConnell, none of the most recent polls out of the deeply conservative state show the Democratic opponent ahead of the incumbent Republican.
A recent poll carried out by Quinnipiac University showed McConnell with the support of 49 percent of Kentucky voters compared to just 44 percent backing McGrath. But polling by Bluegrass Data Analytics showed a somewhat closer race, although McConnell still led by 3 percentage points. In that survey, the Republican was supported by 49 percent of Kentucky voters as opposed to 46 percent who backed the Democratic challenger.
In this combination image, Amy McGrath addresses supporters at the EKU Center for the Arts on November 6, 2018 in Richmond, Kentucky, and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell speaks to members of the press on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C.But another recent Kentucky poll carried out by Morning Consult suggested that McConnell has a much more sizable lead over McGrath.
