KY HR7

Kentucky House Resolution recognizing seven guiding principles for state elections: security and accessibility, representative government, stability and uniformity, reliability and accuracy, transparency, accountability, and federalism

Affirms that voting should be easy for citizens while maintaining security safeguards, and that only citizens should vote in federal, state, and local elections

Emphasizes election laws should be applied evenly statewide, avoid mid-election procedural changes, and ensure all stages from registration through tabulation are visible to the public

States that adoption of these principles leads to higher voter turnout and greater public confidence in the electoral process

Directs the Clerk to transmit copies to Representative John Hodgson, Secretary of State Michael G. Adams, and the Kentucky State Board of Elections
