Polling Place Locations

You can find your election-day polling place here: https://elect.ky.gov/Voters/Pages/Polling-Locations.aspx

Voting locations may have changed due to:

  • Precinct boundaries being updated
  • Precinct consolidations that allow voters from multiple precincts to share a location
  • Voting centers that allow voters from all precincts in the county to vote in the same place (or several places)

For Election Day or Early in-person voting places, ask at your county clerk’s office or visit GoVote.ky.gov and choose “Polling Locations”
