In-Person Absentee Voting open for KY General Election

By Bradford Queen

Frankfort, KY - Absentee voting in-person in county clerks' offices is now open statewide for Kentucky's Nov. 6 General Election.

To be qualified to vote by in-person absentee ballot, you must meet one of the following:
  • Out of the county on election day
  • Advanced in age, disabled, or ill
  • Military, their Dependents, or an Overseas Citizen
  • Military personnel confined to base and learn of your confinement within seven days or less of an election
  • Student or resident who temporarily resides outside of the county
  • Voter or the spouse of a voter who has surgery scheduled that will require hospitalization on Election Day
  • Pregnant woman in third trimester
  • Or an election official
Voters who do not qualify to vote absentee in-person may still be eligible to vote absentee by mail.


Voters may apply to vote an absentee ballot in-person by appearing at their county clerk's office. Check with the county clerk regarding business hours. Some county clerk offices are open on Saturdays before Election Day.

Applications for mail-in absentee ballots must be received by the clerk's office no later than Oct. 30. The completed absentee ballot must be returned by mail and received by the county clerk by 6pmCT local time on Election Day.

Persons with questions about absentee voting should contact their county clerk or call the State Board of Elections at 502-573-7100. Additional information about absentee voting is also available on the State Board's website, elect.ky.gov.
