This is a sample that voted 52%-39% Romney in 2012. However, Romney won the state of KY by 22 points (60%-38%). So this poll may even be (slightly?) biased towards Democrats.

Why haven't we seen any new polls on this, and what would the numbers be like after the past few weeks of Bevin gaffes and scandals?

What new gaffes and scandals? Did Bevin vote for Buchanan in 2000 or what? Please enlighten us.

He's been caught in several lies, and his support of cockfighting is ridiculous.
