Charles Booker is the underdog in the Democratic primary race for Senate in Kentucky. On the heels of endorsements from AOC and Bernie on Tuesday, yesterday he received an endorsement from the Louisville Courier, the newspaper with the largest in Kentucky.
Over the course of the day yesterday, Booker moved from a low of 10% to spike above 35% overnight. Notably, the endorsement article was posted at the paper at 4:58pm, causing an immediate jump.
Top Movers
In the June 30 approval market, B1 (39.9% or less) moderated significantly yesterday as traders moved it from 50% likelihood down to 39% — down from the 80s the day before. Seems that some previous certainty that Trump’s approval decline would worsen has abated.
