Voter Empowerment
Election Day is tomorrow. Here’s what you need to know.
Tomorrow – Tuesday, November 5 – is Election Day in Kentucky.
This election will be close. If you’re eligible to vote, please make a plan to go to the polls between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m.
Together, we can choose leaders who will show up with us and for us on issues that matter to Kentuckians, like health care, public education and voting rights.
To see what will be on your ballot, learn where candidates stand on issues, find your voting location, and much more, visit www.KentuckyElection.org
Governor's race could decide whether 100K+ Kentuckians regain the right to vote
AN ESTIMATED 312,000 KENTUCKIANS CAN'T VOTE BECAUSE OF A FELONY CONVICTION. THAT COULD CHANGE AFTER THE STATE'S GUBERNATORIAL ELECTION ON NOV. 5.
Members celebrate Northern Kentucky’s love for democracy
Northern Kentucky members celebrated the voter registration period with a whirlwind of activity from September 28 through October 6! Working with ally organizations, student organizations, churches, local businesses, musicians, poets and others, they worked hard to make sure more voices would be heard in our upcoming election.
Beshear and Bevin are tied in the polls. You can break that tie.
According to a new poll released today, Andy Beshear and Matt Bevin are tied in the race for governor. You can break that tie.
One big take away from this poll is that KFTC's work is so crucial right now. While Bevin and Beshear are fighting over swing voters and turning out their bases, KFTC is helping to engage and turn out new voters – new voters that could make a decisive choice on election day.
But to do that, it will take all of us showing up. Will you volunteer with KFTC between now and election day? Sign up at www.WeAreKentuckians.org.
We registered over 2,500 voters!
KFTC members relentlessly got out into their communities over the past few months to register their neighbors to vote door-to-door, at community events, and more.
The voter registration deadline was Monday, October 7.
In the end, we registered 2,560 voters! Not only did we exceed our goal by over 500 voters, every region of the state hit or exceeded their goal!
We also recruited 4,841 people to sign petitions on various issues in that time and we did it all with 363 volunteer shifts by KFTC members like you!
Behind every one of those numbers are thousands of real people who we connected with. People with stories who are just a little more empowered and connected to our Democracy because of that. To see a gallery of pictures we took doing voter registration, look here!
