Last week, the Republican Governors Association reminded any Kentuckian who tuned in to watch the Democratic presidential debates that they have to get through the 2019 race for Kentucky governor first.

Since the primary, the Republican Governors Association has spent about $2 million on ads attacking Attorney General Andy Beshear, the Democratic nominee for governor. They’ve hit him on the perception of nepotism, his hiring of an aide who later went to prison for accepting political bribes and, in their latest ad, a pledge he made to stop the “negative policies” of President Donald Trump.

Those ads have gone unanswered on TV by Democrats until now, painting a one-sided picture of the race for governor.

The difference in early ad strategy presents a clear contrast in how the national groups are approaching November’s general election. The Democrats, saving their money, hope to make their case to Kentuckians this fall, when they’re more likely to be paying attention. The Republicans, following the traditional strategy of U.S. Sen. Mitch McConnell, are blasting their message early and often in an attempt to control the narrative of the race.
