Officials are encouraging Kentuckians to report any instances or suspicions of vote fraud on Election Day. The Kentucky Attorney General’s election fraud hotline will be open throughout Tuesday.
Spokeswoman Allison Martin says the most common complaints involve vote-buying or campaigning too close to a polling place.
Kentucky’s electioneering law was struck down by a federal judge earlier this year, but while the case is under appeal, it’s still illegal in most cases to promote any candidates within 300 feet of a polling place.
"The only change is that if you have private property that is across the street from a polling place, or near a polling place within that 300 foot boundary, you do not have to take your sign down," Martin said.
Martin added the election fraud hotline received 205 calls from more than 60 counties during this year’s primary election.
The hotline number is 1-800-328-VOTE.
