COUNTY CLERK MIKE KEM

            CHRISTIAN COUNTY CLERK MIKE KEM SAYS HE EXPECTS AN EXCEPTIONALLY LOW VOTER TURNOUT FOR TUESDAY’S ELECTION.

            JUST AS IT WAS LOW IN MAY, KEM SAYS HE EXPECTS MORE OF THE SAME IN THE GENERAL ELECTION—WITH TURNOUT SOMEWHERE AROUND 17 OR 18 PERCENT.

            KEM SAYS HE BASED THOSE NUMBERS ON ABSENTEE VOTING, WHICH HAS BEEN SLOW TO SAY THE LEAST. RESIDENTS CAN CONTINUE TO VOTE ABSENTEE MONDAY THROUGH 4PM IF YOU WON’T BE ABLE TO MAKE IT TO YOUR POLLING PLACE TUESDAY.

            THERE ARE NO CHANGES IN POLLING LOCATIONS FROM THE PRIMARY AND THE POLLS WILL BE OPEN FROM 6AM UNTIL 6PM. ELECTION COVERAGE WILL BEGIN ON THE WHOP FAMILY OF STATIONS AT 6PM.
