Both Democrats and Republicans are focusing on a special state House election, which could be the only race this year.
Republican Party of Kentucky chairman Steve Robertson says the 56th special election is Round 2 in a multi-year fight for the state house between his party and the Kentucky Democratic Party.
"Let's be realistic this election is going to be a big priority for both parties."
The race could also be the first test of Super PAC might, as both Democratic and Republican Super PACs are been formed to influence state House races.
