Senator McConnell holds a 15% job approval rating, while 68% disapprove

Woah. I know, he's not running again but wow, Kentucky is not happy with their Senate representation.

Senator Paul holds a 30% job approval rating among voters, while 32% disapprove of the job he is doing.

Booker and McGrath. Sadly, I don't see Kentucky voting for an American-American or a woman anytime soon. I'm not saying they shouldn't run. I'm just saying that white men in Kentucky are more than willing to vote against their best interests to vote for another white man.
