The deadline to register to vote in this year’s General Election in November is next Tuesday, and people are urged to register or check their registration before it’s too late.
Christian County Clerk Melinda Humphries says it’s important to make sure you’re registered to vote so you can exercise that right, and you can do so on govote.ky.gov.
If you’re already registered to vote, this is also a good time to double-check to make sure it’s accurate and make any changes while you can. After Tuesday, you won’t be able to register to vote or change that registration until after the November election.
Those who need to do so can also go ahead and request a mail-in absentee ballot—Humphries says that portal is open until October 24.
After that, her office is gearing up for the November election, with early voting set for November 2, November 3 and November 4 and then Election Day itself on November 7.
There are 13 voting centers this election, where anyone can vote at, no matter where you live, and those include the James E. Bruce Convention Center, Christian County Courthouse, Senior Citizens Center, Oak Grove Community Center, Indian Hills Elementary School, New Barren Springs Church, New Palestine Baptist Church, Sinking Fork Baptist Church, Pembroke Baptist Church, Crofton City Hall, South Christian Elementary School, Walnut Street Center and Hopkinsville Middle School.
