Padgett vs. Tuke match-up beginning to take shape

Posted By katie allison granju

Nashville City Paper this week surmises how Knox County’s homeboy, Mike Padgett might overcome Bob Tuke’s insider status:

Party insiders, though, are saying it could be very likely (polling) numbers also reflect the sentiment in the party statewide about the Democrats primary candidates — that despite Tuke’s profile in the fishbowl of Nashville, Padgett may have the upper hand statewide.

The logic is that Padgett already has a grassroots network and fundraising apparatus as countywide officeholder in a large market for Tennessee. Tuke also may be handicapped by getting in the race, getting out in December and now getting back in.
