"I'm putting my money where my mouth is and using funds from my Office to encourage early voting," said Adams. "Skip the lines and vote the Thursday, Friday, or Saturday before election day. Voting early is just like voting on election day, except the lines will be shorter." The campaign includes statewide television ads and billboards, which remind Kentuckians that any voter who is qualified to vote on election day in the county of his or her residence may choose to cast a no-excuse in person absentee ballot on Thursday, October 31, Friday, November 1, or Saturday, November 2, 2024. In Adair County, early voting will take place at the Adair County Courthouse Annex Basement, 424 Public Square, Columbia. Come in the front doors go straight ahead; voters may take elevator or steps to the basement. Remember that voters must provide proof of ID.

Tommy Druen: A battle that can never be fully won Previous Column: Remember to take pictures By Tommy Druen I'm having a love affair. It's no secret--my wife is fully aware. In fact, she's often my willing accomplice. Sometimes, we sneak away in the morning. Other times, we rendezvous in the afternoon. But more often than not, our adventures take place late at night, after the kids are asleep. Yes, I'm in love--with food. Now, I hesitate to call myself a "foodie." That term carries a certain air of pretension I find unappealing. While I won't turn down a gourmet meal, I'm just as comfortable at a ramshackle food truck or a barbecue joint that looks like the health department might condemn it any minute. Great food isn't about price or setting; it's all about flavor. But food is more than just a pleasurable experience. It has deeper meaning, as my friend and pastor, Patrick DeVane, reminded me with a story about World War II and bread.
