Voter Guides Coming Together Soon

This week is our big final push to get candidates to respond to our KFTC Candidate Survey so that we can process the results and publish them in 25,000 copies of our Voter Guide and on www.KentuckyElection.org. 

It's a key part of our voter education campaign - asking candidates to make statements on issues and to relay those answers word-for-word to KFTC members and friends and anyone else looking for the information to help inform their votes and to make the democratic process possible.

We'll then have a strong statewide phone bank to follow-up with all of those people to make sure they're all set to vote.

We've sent surveys to all federal-level Kentucky candidates (US Senate race Democratic and Republican Primaries, 3rd Congressional District Republican Primary, 5th Congressional District Democratic Primary, 6th Congressional District Republican Primary), plus some local races (check with your local organizer to find out what races we're producing voter guides for in your community).

As always, it has proven to be very difficult to get candidates to respond to our non-partisan candidate questions, which is why we need YOUR help this week.

If you are at events where any of these candidates are, ask them if they've responded to the KFTC Candidate Survey yet - or even contact the campaigns by phone or email to tell them that responding to this questionnaire is important to you as a voter.

We'll continue to follow-up with "official" KFTC phone calls and emails to the campaigns to encourage them to respond, but KFTC's strength, as always, resides in our membership so any action you can take to help would be very valuable.
