  • Democratic Gov. Andy Beshear narrowly won in 2019 .
  • Beshear is running for his second term in 2023 in a state with a Republican supermajority in the legislature.
  • Though 12 Republicans are running in the May 16 GOP primary, there are three clear frontrunners whose campaigns will largely hinge on issues such as education and crime while also targeting Beshear’s record on COVID-19, they told the Daily Caller News Foundation.
