Voter Registration Deadline TODAY - Monday, Oct 4th
Today - Monday, October 4th - is the deadline to register to vote in Kentucky for the November 2nd, 2010 General Election.
Voter registration cards must be turned into the correct County Clerk's office by the time they close today, or postmarked and mailed to either the correct County Clerk or the State Board of Elections.
Note that 17 year-olds who will be 18 on November 2nd or earlier must register now so they can vote in the election.
Also note that students away at school can either use their permanent school address or their temporary local address as their voter registration address. It's completely up to them, but given that election day is a school day, we encourage students to consider registering at school - because they're much more likely to vote if the voting location is close and easy to get to.
Former felons in the state of Kentucky cannot vote - even after they have served their debt to society - unless they have received a partial pardon from the Governor to have that right restored. It's too late for this election, but former felons who have completed their sentence may request their rights back by filling out this form.

KFTC chapters will be turning in cards today from this weekend's Operation Voter Madness - a robust, massive voter registration effort all across the state.
Please feel free to look over our recent blog entries to see some stories from the weekend. More will be coming in over the next few days.
KFTC volunteers cams out day-after-day for this 4-day marathon voter registration drive and did a great job getting out into our communities and registering voters. If we missed you and you still need to register, please take this opportunity to register now.
If you have any questions about voter registration, please call your local County Clerk's office, or contact Dave Newton from KFTC at 859-420-8919.
Don't wait any longer - get yourself registered as early as you can today and talk to your friends, neighbors, and family members to make sure they're registered too.
