General Election Sample Ballot
The sample ballot for the 2026 General Election is now available.
A label under each contest will indicate whether the contest appears on all precinct ballots or is precinct-specific.
Use the Kentucky Voter Information System to determine your precinct name, and pay special attention to any city or school district codes associated with your voter record. Some precincts may have multiple ballot faces due to split city or school district codes. These will be identified with “(Part of)” in front of the precinct name.
Please review your precinct information carefully to determine which ballot face applies to you.
What to Bring
