A reminder: Alcohol sales not prohibited

State law does not prohibit alcoholic beverage sales on election day. It's a matter of local option, and neither The City of Columbia nor Adair County Fiscal Court's ordinances prohibit sales on election day.

By Shannon Sexton

I've received several calls and texts about alcohol sales on Election Day. Could you please post a quick reminder...

Per the Kentucky Dept. of Alcoholic Beverage Control, in 2013 the law changed to allow alcohol sales during the hours that the polls are open on primary, or regular, local option or special election day (KRS 244.290). However, the statute further stipulates that local governments may prohibit such sales. Adair Co. and City of Columbia do not prohibit sales on Election Day, per their respective ordinances.

Thank you,
Shannon Sexton, Adair County ABC Deputy Administrator
