And Kentucky's eight electoral votes go to ...
Okay, it's far too early for that, but in a hypothetical matchup in the 2016 presidential race between U.S. Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Paul would narrowly carry the Bluegrass State, according to a new poll.
The Bluegrass Poll, sponsored jointly by the Lexington Herald-Leader, the Courier-Journal, WKYT-TV and WHAS-TV, found that Paul would beat Clinton in Kentucky 48 percent to 44 percent.
SurveyUSA conducted the poll of 1,782 registered voters from May 14 to 16. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 2.4 percentage points.
Paul's lead over Clinton appears to be partially a function of gender at this point, with Paul winning 55 percent of men to Clinton's 38 percent and Clinton winning women 50 percent to 42 percent.
Stephen Voss, a political science professor at the University of Kentucky, said he has heard a lot of interest in the potential face-off between Paul and Clinton.
"It's like asking whether Superman or Batman would win if they got into a fight," Voss said. "People know the battle isn't likely to happen, but they want to fantasize about it anyway."
While Clinton has remained largely silent about whether she will take the plunge and run in 2016, Paul has enjoyed a whirlwind 2014 that has seen him pronounced the front-runner in some circles for the Republican nomination.
The senator has joked that the designation sounds "unlucky," but has worked overtime to court major GOP donors and voters in Iowa, New Hampshire and other early primary states should he decide to run.
Paul has been clear that he plans to seek re-election to his Senate seat in 2016, but he has consistently said he might also run for president.
