94.3 THE WOLF Country That'll Make You Howl!
This weekend is your last weekend to register to vote ahead of the November 5 general election.
“The deadline to register to vote is 4 p.m. on October 7,” said Hardin County Clerk Brian D. Smith. “You can do that by coming by our office or visiting govote.ky.gov. The absentee request portal is open at that same website, govote.ky.gov, or you can come by our office or you can call our election staff at 270-765-6762.”
GoVote.KY.gov also allows you to check on your absentee ballot status, find polling locations, look up sample ballots, and find more election information.
Smith says voters should also be wary of the potential for scams as they go online for election information.
“There are a lot of third-party websites that look very official,” Smith said. “They’re run by private organizations or purported non-profit organizations. They cannot request your absentee ballot. You cannot request an absentee ballot through them. They’re collecting your name, your address, your Social Security number, and your birth date, and we don’t know what they’re doing with them.”
Smith says official election information would never come from a .com or a .org website. Contact your county clerk’s office for more election information.
