Republican Senate candidates seeking to replace McConnell aim to define themselves at Fancy Farm

Three Republicans competing to succeed longtime Sen. Mitch McConnell tried to define themselves before the political attacks that could come Saturday when they share the stage at the Fancy Farm picnic. It's a daunting rite of passage for candidates seeking statewide office in Kentucky. Daniel Cameron, one of the candidates, says the picnic crowd will hear some barbs. But his speech to a GOP crowd on Friday focused on his vision for serving as a senator. Cameron’s rivals in next year’s Senate primary are U.S. Rep. Andy Barr and businessman Nate Morris. They used their speeches at the Friday event to introduce themselves to Republican voters in western Kentucky.
