Good environmental policies start
with strong public participation- Your vote is your power

  • State and U.S. Offices on the ballot for 2024: U.S. House, State Senate, State House, State Supreme Court

  • Ballot Measures for 2024: In Kentucky, citizens do not have the power to initiate statewide initiatives or referendums. Voters of Kentucky have never voted on a ballot measure to authorize a statewide initiative and referendum process. The Kentucky State Legislature can refer statewide ballot measures in the form of constitutional amendments. There are presently two amendments on the ballot for 2024. One amendment would allow for laws to provide state funding for non-public education. The second amendment would amend the Kentucky Constitution to provide that only United States citizens can vote in elections in the state.

  • Remember to confirm your voting location, hours, and dates for early voting. Polling locations here.

  • Don’t just rely on “straight ticket”…there are many good candidates in all parties and don’t forget independent candidates! Find sample ballots here.

  • Don’t just get your candidate news from social media. Ads and postings can tend to be reinforcing, which can lead to “groupthink”- which may cause you to overlook good candidates. Try broadening your sources for learning about candidates.

  • Don’t just “go with your gut”…if you don’t know enough about a candidate, we encourage you to take the time and do your homework. And it is ok to abstain too if you feel you do not know who to vote for.
