AG's office taking steps to ensure clean, fair elections ELECTION 8 Nov 2016 By Terry Sebastian and Crystal Staley News from the Kentucky Attorney General's Office FRANKFORT, KY (26 Oct 2016) - As absentee votes are being cast and as voters prepare to head to the polls Tuesday, November 8, 2016 Attorney General Andy Beshear is urging Kentuckians to report any voting abnormalities to his office's Election Fraud Hotline. Beshear asks all Kentuckians who witness election irregularities or possible election law violations to call the Election Fraud Hotline at 800-328-VOTE or 800-328-8683. The hotline is open throughout the year during normal business hours and from 6amET to 7pmET, on Election Day. "Each voter has the right to cast his or her ballot free of interference and intimidation, and my office is here to protect that right," Beshear said. "I encourage anyone with possible information about violations of federal voting rights laws to call the Election Fraud Hotline. Each and every report made will be promptly investigated to ensure a fair and honest election in Kentucky." By law, the Office of the Attorney General has jurisdiction to investigate and prosecute election law violations. In addition to the hotline, investigators from the Attorney General's Office may patrol precincts and polling places across the Commonwealth on Election Day in order to respond immediately to complaints. "We are committed to enforcing clean and fair elections, and holding those who violate the law accountable," Beshear said. Beshear is also a member of the Kentucky Election Integrity Task Force, and has been working closely with the Secretary of State's Office and the United States Attorney's Offices in Eastern and Western Kentucky to protect voters and the integrity of the election. The Attorney General's Office is required by statute to conduct postelection audits in six randomly drawn counties within 20 days of the election. The Attorney General's Office will send hotline updates to the media during the day and after the polls close November 8. Members of the news media covering the election are reminded that they may be in the voting room for the limited purpose of filming the voting process. However, as per OAG 88-76, the media may not conduct interviews with voters inside the voting room, record the identity of voters or disrupt the voting process. See KRS 117.236.
