Recent endorsements and campaign momentum have positioned Zach Dembo and Cherlynn Stevenson as the clear frontrunners in Kentucky’s 6th Congressional District Democratic primary, set for May 19. Dembo, a former federal prosecutor and Navy veteran, secured backing from ex-Rep. Ben Chandler and the Lexington Herald-Leader editorial board in the past week, strengthening his appeal among voters focused on electability against the Republican incumbent. Stevenson, a former state representative with deep local ties and support from Lt. Gov. Jacqueline Coleman and labor groups, maintains a competitive share through her legislative record and rural outreach. The remaining candidates trail far behind amid limited fundraising and visibility. Trader pricing reflects this narrowing contest, with the outcome hinging on turnout in Lexington and surrounding counties over the final days.
