Voter roll maintenance legislation advances to the Kentucky Senate floor

Fisherville GOP Representative John Hodgson says gains are being made to clean up Kentucky’s voting rolls. Hodgson is sponsoring legislation that, among other things, aims to confirm the number of voters living at a particular address. He said thousands of names of deceased voters have been removed from voting rolls. Hodgson said the concern would be of someone casting a vote on behalf of a deceased person.

“Particularly when you get into things like…we don’t have mail-in ballots in Kentucky but we do have absentee ballots..you know it’s conceivable somebody could use a name that they know is not on…not a living person to try to cast a vote somewhere,” said Hodgson.
