Kentucky voters who suspect election law violations or irregularities may report them to the election fraud hotline, 1-800-328-VOTE, Attorney General Daniel Cameron’s office reported in preparation for Election Day.
“While our voting process has changed for the 2020 general election, my office remains committed to doing our part to ensure the integrity of our elections by investigating and prosecuting criminal violations of election law,” Cameron said in a news release. “This election season, if Kentuckians witness suspected fraud, we urge them to join us in protecting the integrity of our election process by calling our hotline to report it.”
The Attorney General’s Office of Special Prosecutions reviews calls to the hotline, and complaints that involve allegations of election fraud are referred to the Department of Criminal Investigations.
Complaints are tracked by county. The public may view complaints on the attorney general’s website.
