Voter registration deadline in Kentucky is Tuesday!
The voter registration deadline is just a few hours away – on Tuesday, October 9.
KFTC chapters across the commonwealth have already registered thousands of voters in recent weeks, and will continue to register new voters right up to the deadline.
If You Still Need to Register
You can register at your local County Clerk's office. Voter registration cards must be turned into the correct office by the end of business hours on Tuesday, October 9, or postmarked and mailed to either the correct County Clerk or the State Board of Elections (address on registration card).
You also can print off a mail-in version of the Kentucky voter registration card to turn in or mail.

Former felons in the state of Kentucky cannot vote – even after they have served their debt to society – unless they have received a partial pardon from the governor to have that right restored. It's too late for this election, but former felons who have completed their sentence may request their rights back by filling out this form.
Note that 17-year-olds who will be 18 on November 6 or earlier can register now and vote in this election.
Also note that students away at school can either use their permanent home address or their temporary school address as their voter registration address. It's completely up to them, but given that election day is a school day, we encourage students to consider registering at school – because they're much more likely to vote if the voting location is close and easy to get to.
Don't wait any longer – get yourself registered as early as you can and talk to your friends, neighbors, and family members to make sure they're registered, too.
