Gatewood Galbraith Enters Governor's Race

• {Kentucky}...Lexington attorney Gatewood Galbraith officially entered the governor's race Thursday, saying voters fed up with partisan bickering need an independent candidate to end political gridlock. Galbraith filed petitions to run as an independent against Democratic Governor Steve Beshear and Republican challenger David Williams. Galbraith, who lost his last four races for governor, has been courting tea party voters and some see him as a potential spoiler if the race tightens before the November 8th election. Secretary of State Elaine Walker says her office had reviewed Galbraith's petitions, which bear more than 7,000 signatures.
