What to bring + closed-primary rules

  • Closed primary — Kentucky only lets you vote in your registered party's primary. Independents and "no party" voters get a ballot with nonpartisan races only (city races, school board) on May 19. Voter registration closed April 20, 2026.
  • Help available — every polling place is required to provide accessibility assistance and language help if you ask.
