Vote today: Polls open at 6 a.m. — find your polling place at the link and check out a voter’s guide


Polls open for the Primary Election today at 6 a.m. and will close at 6 p.m., though anyone in line at 6 p.m. will be able to vote.

Defy the predictions of low-turnout by exercising your right to vote today.

Kentuckians can prepare to vote by visiting GoVoteKY.com, the Commonwealth’s one-stop portal for election resources. Voters can avoid Election Day surprises by verifying their current registration status, polling locations and viewing sample ballots on the online portal.

All Kentucky voters will consider candidates for the statewide office of Governor/Lieutenant Governor, Secretary of State, Auditor of Public Accounts, State Treasurer, Attorney General, Commissioner of Agriculture and in some counties an unexpired term for a judicial office.

The polls will be open May 21 from 6 a.m. until 6 p.m., local time. Anyone who is in line at 6 p.m. will still be able to vote.

If you see any suspicious voting-related activity, call the Attorney General’s hotline at 1-800-328-VOTE (8683).

For questions, contact your county clerk or the State Board of Elections at 502-573-7100.

For last-minute double-check of the candidates, check out the Kentuckians for the Commonwealth voter guide here.

In the guide, you’ll find basic information about the candidates and their answers to the KFTC questionaire, if the candidates answered them.

Remember that this is an election for parties to determine who will represent them in the general election. There is a Democratic ballot and a Republican ballot. Here they are:

*DREW CURTIS announced in April that he was withdrawing from the race for Auditor.
