Kentucky Secretary of State Michael Adams says despite Kentucky’s population increasing since he took office in 2020, the number of registered voters has actually declined.

The Secretary of State’s Office says more than 231,000 eligible voters were removed from Kentucky voter rolls in February in compliance with federal and state laws. The National Voter Registration Act and Kentucky’s equivalent law require a multi-year process to remove inactive voters “unless they die, are judged mentally incompetent or guilty of a felony, or act to remove themselves.”

About 225,000 voters removed in February were removed due to inactivity. Of those removed, 99,168 were Democrats, 95,732 were Republicans, and 30,411 were independent or other.

The Secretary of State’s Office says Republican registration accounts for 47 percent of the electorate. Democratic registration makes up 42 percent, and independent or other makes up 11 percent.

Kentuckians can register to vote or check their registration status by visiting govote.ky.gov, or by contacting their county clerk’s office.
