If you are planning on applying for a mail-in absentee ballot, Tuesday is your last chance to do so.

“May 5 is the last date to request an absentee ballot,” said Hardin County Clerk Brian D. Smith. “Folks can do it by calling our office at 270-765-6762 or visit govote.ky.gov.”

Voting for the 2026 primary election then gets under way on Wednesday.

“In-person excused absentee voting begins Wednesday, May 6, and runs the 7th, 8th, 11th, 12th and 13th,” Smith said. “These are days that are set aside for any voter who qualifies for an absentee ballot. They can come into the county clerk’s office and cast their vote in person.”

In-person absentee voters must have one of the designated absentee reasons in order to cast a ballot during this period. The in-person no-excuse absentee voting period then follows.

“Early voting begins May 14 and runs through the 15th and 16th,” Smith said. “These three days are available for any voter in Hardin County who wants to come in person to cast their ballot. The hours are 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. We have locations at the Hardin County Clerk’s main office in Elizabethtown and at Colvin Community Center in Radcliff.”

Primary Election Day is Tuesday, May 19. Contact your county clerk’s office or visit govote.ky.gov for more election information.
