The Kentucky Senate on Tuesday approved a major election reform bill on a bipartisan vote, paving the way for the measure’s final passage once the Senate amendments are approved by the commonwealth’s House of Representatives.
The state senators voted 33-3 on March 16 to approve an omnibus bill that would, once enacted, establish three days of no-excuse early voting, mandate a universal paper ballot across the state, and prohibit ballot harvesting, among other provisions.
