The week ahead: events to watch out for May 16-22

Don’t forget to vote on Election Day

Polls are open from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. local time. Anyone in line by 6 p.m. may vote. A voter may cast a ballot only for candidates in his or her own political party.

To find out whether you are registered to vote, where you vote and in which races you may vote, visit the Voter Information Center at the State Board of Elections’ website, Elect.ky.gov.

If you see election fraud, call Attorney General Andy Beshear’s office, 1-800-328- 8683.

It is illegal in some cities — but not Lexington anymore — for retailers to sell malt beverages, distilled spirits and wine during polling hours.
