KFTC members vote! | Kentuckians For The Commonwealth

KFTC members vote!

We crunched the numbers and found that a whopping 73% of eligible KFTC members have voted in all three of the more recent General Elections we studied in Kentucky (2008, 2006, and 2005). Compare that to only 37% of Kentucky registered voters overall who voted in all three of those same elections.

Conversation spark

Are you all set to vote next Tuesday, November 6th? Do you have time set-aside between 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. to vote, and do you know where you’re going?  Have you had a chance to visit www.KentuckyElection.org or have you gotten to look at your KFTC voter guide or otherwise had a chance to learn about all of the candidates?

Have a good conversation with your cluster members to help them think through voting and think about what they have to do between now and Election Day to get ready.

We can estimate from this that more than 95% of KFTC members who have the right to vote will vote in the big election next week.

KFTC members like you and most of your cluster members seem to be some of the strongest "super voters" in the state.  And that impact doesn't count other friends that we're reaching through phone banks, web, mailings, voter guides, or even informal contacts our 7,000 members make across the state.

Contacting your cluster members and making sure they’re all set to vote next week is a key first step!  Can you take a moment this week to make sure they have time set aside on Election Day to vote, have a way to get there, and have access to information about candidates to cast an informed vote?  You can also point them to www.KentuckyElection.org to help get them ready.  

Past that, KFTC members across the state are involved in field work like passing out voter guides and conducting phone banks to call all KFTC members, the 4,814 people we registered to vote this year, plus thousands of other people we've been in touch with lately.  If you or your cluster members want to get more involved in that work, please contact your local KFTC organizer to ask when the next phone banks are.

There are 7 days until the election.  Let’s make them count.
