Absentee Voter Guide
Posted on October 2, 2008 by LuAnn Farrar
The Harvard University Institute of Politics has a one-stop Web site for figuring out how to vote absentee in every state in the U.S.: Kentucky and U.S.
For absentee voting in Kentucky, you must register to vote absentee by Oct. 28 (that’s different from registering to vote). If you will be out of town, in your third trimester of pregnancy, with a hospitalized spouse, or otherwise unable to get to the polls on election day, you can also vote absentee. Check the state’s guide to voting for more details.

My mother was a public school librarian. I earned a bachelor’s degree in music and a master’s degree in library and information science from the University of Kentucky. The Herald-Leader hired me as a news assistant 25 years ago; soon after, I moved to the news research department, where I’ve been ever since. We used to clip newspapers. Now, almost all of our research is online. We've come a long way.
