A new Republican poll shows Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell with a wide lead over his conservative opponent, Matt Bevin.

Fifty-nine percent of GOP primary voters back McConnell, while 20 percent support Bevin in the poll, which was conducted by GOP firm Wenzel Strategies and reported by Politico.

However, Bevin, a political newbie who just announced yesterday, isn’t well known in the state yet: 64 percent of likely voters have no opinion of him. Among GOP primary voters, 42 percent remained open to potentially changing their mind about what candidate they backed, while 58 percent felt very firm about their pick.
