On the eve of Democratic primaries in Oregon and Kentucky, polls show some movement in support for the candidates, the Boston Globe reports:

• Barack Obama once held a double-digit lead in Oregon, but two surveys today put him up only 4 points (45%-41%) and 5 points (50%-45%).

• Hillary Clinton continues to hold strong in Kentucky, where she leads by 26 points (51%-25%), while John Edwards still clocks in at 6%—with 16% “uncommitted” or undecided.
• Obama’s fortunes in the two states varied enormously, with only 43% of Kentuckians viewing him favorably (with 43% unfavorable), even as a whopping 73% of Oregonians felt the same (with 15% unfavorable).
