Tornadoes, ice storms, flooding. Louisville has seen them all. Each can disrupt or even destroy physical households, leaving residents to make the best of a bad situation. You can prepare yourself to do just that. The city's Emergency Management Agency has multiple emergency preparedness guides listed at this link on its website. Take a look and get prepared.

Since March 2016, Kentuckians have been able to register to vote and update their registrations online at the website https://vrsws.sos.ky.gov/ovrweb/govoteky. Kentucky Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes says the GoVoteKy.com web portal has been a huge success. “We have had over 100,000 Kentuckians access it,” Grimes recently told a committee in Frankfort. “Over 37,000 applications have been processed. Eleven thousand of those applications are new registered voters. The remaining 26,000 are folks who are updating their registration.” The deadline to register for the November 8, 2016 General Election is October 11, 2016.
Register and Go Vote KY!
