Early voting during a pandemic

Early voting took place in Kentucky from Oct. 13 to Nov. 2, with dates and hours possibly varying by location. Prior to Election Day, voters came to the Boyle County Courthouse to either drop their absentee ballots in ballot boxes or vote early in person. Voters could also cast their absentee ballots by mail. On Nov. 2, the Advocate-Messenger made a stop at the courthouse to catch a glimpse of early voting in person during a pandemic.
If you haven’t voted yet and want to vote on Nov. 3, Election Day, head to one of the following polling locations in Boyle County, according to the Kentucky State Board of Elections: Junction City First Baptist Church, Perryville Baptist Church, Boyle County Fire Dept. Station 1 and First Christian Church.

Voters wait in line to vote early on Nov. 2. “Everybody’s been so patient,” Ramey said. “They love it.” – Photo by Olivia Mohr
