The son of Rep. Ron Paul (R-Tex.) handily beat Kentucky Secretary of State Trey Grayson (R) in the first quarter, raising $1.1 million to Grayson’s $600,000. As I noted when Paul first got into the race, his ability to raise a lot of money from a national base is going to muddle Republicans’ strategy in the state–the party has not made an endorsement, but Grayson polls better than Paul at the moment.
