A former Kentucky Congressman whose political career ended in scandal some 20 years ago is looking to head back to the State Senate.
Democrat Carroll Hubbard is hoping voters will overlook past transgressions that landed him in prison, and give him another shot at public service.
Hubbard has been attracting big money from donors who want to help him win a seat in the state senate, where he began a tumultuous trek in 1968.
Hubbard faces Trigg County Judge-Executive Stan Humphries. The 75-year-old Hubbard served in Congress for 18 years. He pleaded guilty to campaign finance violations and went to prison in 1995.
