Fayette County Clerk concerned Primary voter turnout will be lower than a typical May Election

Primary Election 2024 is two weeks away and a central Kentucky voting official has some concerns about voter turnout. Primary voting in May is traditionally much lower than a General Election in November. But, Fayette County Clerk Susan Lamb is worried this could be smaller than usual. Lamb said at the end of last week 13 hundred absentee ballots had been requested with 300 returned.

“By this time you would think that we would at least be having two to three thousand and receiving at least half of those back. If this is any indication about the turnout for our Primary, I’m gonna be very sad and disappointed,” said Lamb.
