The survey shows a majority of men approve of Beshear's work (50%-46%) while a majority of women do not (39%-53%). And Beshear is still suffering the pain of that state senate seat campaign and loss in eastern Kentucky. Only 32% of eastern Kentuckians approve of the job Beshear is doing, dragging down his overall number. The Louisville area (50%-45%) and western Kentucky (49%-44%) provided the bump in Beshear's numbers. In a bit of surprise to me, African American voters don't like the job Beshear is doing by a 14 point margin (40%-54%).
