Kentucky HB291 amends the rules for determining a voter's residence in city precincts.
Kentucky HB291 modifies the criteria for establishing a voter's residence within city precincts. It specifies that a voter's residence is where their habitation is, and where they intend to return when absent. If a voter has at least 50% ownership in real property within a city precinct, that precinct is considered their residence. Homeless individuals can choose a fixed address, such as a shelter, as their residence. The bill also clarifies that a voter's residence is not lost by temporary absences and cannot be gained by temporary presence in another county or precinct.
