Kentucky recently held a statewide election to decide who would be serving as Governor and other positions next term. However, as happens after every election, the office of the Attorney General has a few extra precautions to take to confirm the legitimacy of the voting results. Pulling 12 county names one at a time from a miniature bourbon barrel, Deputy Attorney General Vic Maddox verbally authenticated his actions, saying:
“I hereby certify for purposes of the November 2023 general election inquiry pursuant to KRS 15.243 that the name of each of the 120 counties has been placed in the container for random selection.”
