Kentucky Republicans Approve Presidential Caucus for Rand Paul

Over the weekend, Kentucky Republican Party leaders made a big decision.

GOP voters will pick their presidential nominee in a caucus next March, instead of the usual primary election in May. It was done mostly to help Kentucky Senator Rand Paul, who is also running for the White House.

But as WFPL's Ashley Lopez reports, Republicans also hope this will give the party some added attention and excitement.
