Republican gubernatorial nominee Matt Bevin said he wouldn’t vote for Kentucky U.S. Senator Rand Paul in next year’s GOP presidential primary.
In a debate on Kentucky Sports Radio Wednesday, Bevin said he would vote for Detroit neurosurgeon Ben Carson.
Paul is scheduled to speak at a Bevin rally on Saturday. Democratic candidate Jack Conway was quick to note the potential awkwardness during the debate.
“Wow, that’s going to make for a testy campaign event this weekend, Matt," Conway claimed.
Conway refused to say who he would vote for in the presidential race, except that he would vote for the Democratic nominee.
Independent candidate Drew Curtis said he would vote for Republican candidate Donald Trump.
Bevin later said via Twitter that he’s not endorsing any presidential candidates.
