Given what James Carville said, it will be interesting to see how much Charles Booker raises, especially from out of state money.
I normally don't believe in making predictions, but I don't think it's much of a stretch to say that the best Booker could do is about 45% of the vote. In the 2016 election, Rand Paul defeated then Lexington Mayor Jim Gray 57.3-42.7% So, any money sent to Booker is basically a waste.
Of course, I mean that as 'the best' is about 45%. Jim Gray ran against Rand Paul in an environment not long after many people thought Rand Paul made a fool of himself running for the Republican Presidential nomination and, so, might have been vulnerable.
The Democratic floor in the state is probably between 35-40% and I'd bet Booker gets somewhere around there.
