Voter Registration
We encourage all voters to check their Kentucky Voter Registration status regularly and to keep it properly updated.
For everything from new registrations to updating your information visit the Kentucky Voter Information Portal at govote.ky.gov or Elections | Madison County Clerk's Office.
You are eligible to vote in Kentucky if you:
Are a U.S. citizen
Are a resident of Kentucky
Are at least 18 years old by Election Day
You must be a state resident for at least 28 days to be eligible to vote.
You are NOT eligible to vote in Kentucky if:
You are registered to vote in another state
A judge has specifically ruled that you are not able to vote.
You must not have been convicted of a felony, or if you have, your voting rights must have been restored.
Restorative Requirements
If you are convicted of a non-violent felony, your right to vote is automatically restored once you complete your full sentence.
If you are convicted of a felony involving treason, bribery, or a violent crime, or if you are convicted of a felony outside of Kentucky, once you have completed all terms of your sentence including probation and parole, your right to vote may only be restored by petitioning the Governor.
You may preregister to vote in Kentucky at 17 years of age provided you will be 18 by the next general election.
Community campaigns are powered by people who believe in positive change. Your support helps organize community events, outreach programs, and local initiatives.
