  The deadline for Kentucky voters to change their party affiliation before the 2018 primary is December 31.

The deadline applies to registered voters who wish to vote for another party in the May 2018 Primary Election or be a candidate for a different political party in the 2018 elections.

Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes said next year, Kentuckians will elect officials at every level - from Congress to the General Assembly to county offices.

Voters who change affiliation after the deadline are not eligible to vote in partisan races in the Primary Election. Registration status can be verified or changed at GoVoteKY.com.

Individuals can make the change in person at their local county clerk’s office.
