Reproductive Rights for Kentucky

Reproductive Rights for Kentucky Reproductive Rights For Kentucky PAC was formed to fight to for the rights of women across Kentucky The U.S.

House of Representatives passed a bill that would ban abortions after 20 weeks. Co-sponsors of this legislation were four Kentucky Representatives, namely Tom Massie, Brett Guthrie, Andy Barr and Hal Rogers. While it is unlikely that this bill will pass in the U.S. Senate, and would surely be vetoed by the President, it is this type of legislation that escalating and gaining strength in state legi

slatures like Kentucky and on the federal level. This is why the Reproductive Rights For Kentucky PAC was formed and why it is so important that we fight to keep the rights we fought so hard for. Reproductive Rights for Kentucky PAC is not associated with, or authorized by, any federal or state candidate, or any campaign committee.

voting tip for KY voters:
Many people vote every four years (president only) – and forget to update their voter registration:

IF you have move within the county: Update your address with the county clerk in person, on-line, or in writing, or change your address at the driver's license office.
If you have not done this before Election Day you may still cast your ballot. You must go to the location that serves your new address on Election Day to vote and update your registration address at that time.

If moves outside of the county: Registration books close 28 days before each election.
If you move to another Kentucky county you must register in your new county before the books close in order to be eligible to vote.
If you move during the 28 day period that the books are closed, you may return to your previous county to vote in that one election only. You will need to change your registration to your new county as soon as the registration books reopen.

Voter Hints
You do not have to vote for every race on the ballot – In Kentucky, all you have to do is vote for one person in order for your ballot to be valid.

An absentee ballot has to be in the County Clerk’s office by 6 pm ON Election Day – not postmarked.

Kentucky law mandates that an employer must give their employees four hours off to vote. This is without pay.

If you die before Election Day, your vote does not count.

Polls open on Tuesday, May 21 at 6 AM and close at 6 PM. If you are in line at 6 PM, you are allowed to vote.
You will need to provide one of these identifications to vote:
U.S. or Kentucky government-issued identification card such as driver’s license, passport, or any other form of ID containing both picture and signature.

If hard of hearing or vision impaired? Every polling place has the new touch screen voting machines – BUT they are kind of hidden, so ask for them.

NOTE: Provisional Ballots are ONLY for federal races. Provisional ballots are only used for federal offices in federal elections, not for any local or state races.

If your name is not on voting roster at the polls:
Talk to the onsite Election Supervisor. He/she can call the Election Center if your eligibility to vote is not resolved.
If still not resolved, you will have to go to the Election Center at 1000 East Liberty (cross street is South Wenzel Street) to appeal to the Board of Elections. If successful, the Board will give you an "order" that you have to take back to your precinct to vote.
If that does not resolve the issue, you can appeal to onsite the Circuit Court Judge, who can overrule the Board. The judge will give you a Court Order that you will have to take back to your precinct in order to vote.
AND all of this must be done before 6 PM

Emergency Medical Ballots:
If you become sick or are in the hospital, you can request a paper absentee ballot until Tuesday, May 21.
Call Jefferson County Board of Election office (502.574.6100) to get an Emergency Medical Ballot.
Someone will need to notarize your application for a ballot, then someone needs take that application to the Board of Elections to get your ballot; then after you fill out your ballot, a person has to take your ballot back to the Board of Elections before 6 PM on Primary Election Day (May 21)!

Voting is an individual act; but helping people vote is a community responsibility.
Call and email your friends and family, reminding them to vote
Ask your neighbors and friends if they need a ride to the polls or to one of the early voting sites.
Ask your employer to give their employees time off with pay to vote.
If your company has shuttle vans, ask if they will take their employees to the polls.

Please pass this information to all your email lists and organizations.
