Ballot positions for nonpartisan races in Grayson County’s General Election have been determined.
At the ballot position drawing, held at the Grayson County Clerk’s Office, only nonpartisan candidates drew for ballot positions. Clerk Sherry Weedman said pursuant to Kentucky Revised Statute, GOP candidates will appear first on the partisan race ballots, followed by Democrats and then Independents (the order in which partisan race candidates appear is determined by Kentucky’s voting in the last presidential election, where the Republican candidate outpolled the Democrat’s entry).
