You may find this information on the candidate’s website (which can be found at www.kepac.org) or search YouTube at www.youtube.com and enter the candidate’s name. • If there are others in attendance who have a strong connection to KEA, our mission, public education, or the issues that impact our community, you may want to ask them (ahead of time) to share a few words as well. • Finally, ask your guests to join us in action. Ask each guest if they are registered to vote; if not, give them the voter registration form or help them find www.GoVoteKY.org. HOUSE PARTY SIGN IN SHEET Please turn in sheets via email to [email protected] First Name Last Name Email Address Zip Code FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Q: What kind of party should I host? A: That’s totally up to you! You know what would be most fun for your friends. Are they more sit- down dinner or backyard barbeque? Tea party or pool party? Perhaps your crowd would be down for a potluck. No need to get fancy—light refreshments are just fine, and the less work you take on as party planner, the more you can focus on the mission of your event. Q: Should my party have a theme? A: That might be fun! If you want to go wild, throw in a game. Q: I don’t know everything about KEPAC or my locally endorsed candidate(s). Can I still host a house party? A: Of course! Use the resources included in this toolkit to get familiar, or simply share them directly with your friends and family. Remember: the best way to be a REMEMBER IN NOVEMBER activist is to share how your own experiences inspired you to act this year. Q: What’s the best way to promote my event? A: If you choose to send your invite through an online platform, there will likely be some built-in features that make it easy to remind and communicate with your guests. If your event is open to anyone, take advantage of social media to spread the word, and ask each guest to invite a friend or two. Expand your reach even further by co-hosting with a friend or colleague—bonus points if you don’t have overlapping social circles. Q: Can I invite KEPAC endorsed candidates to my event? A: As a citizen and voter hosting an event, you should contact the campaign and ask if the candidate has the time to attend. Q: Can KEA send a speaker to my event? A: Include your request when you email your UniServ Director and we’ll see what we can do! Be sure to include a description of your event, the date, and the location. RESOURCES KEPAC (www.kepac.org) Your home base for information on the ways you can stay connected to all things REMEMBER IN NOVEMBER and all the political activity of KEPAC.

  • VOTE Tuesday, Nov. 6
    VOTE Tuesday, Nov. 6 This year C-FAIR, the political action committee (PAC) of the Fairness Campaign, proudly endorsed more than 90 candidates for state and local offices across Kentucky in the 2018 General Election. We are proud to share them with you in this newsletter, which includes a full list of endorsed candidates and brief endorsement narratives in a few select races. You might be wondering why you do not see endorsements in the many important races for Congress across Kentucky, but as a state PAC, C-FAIR only endorses candidates for state and local office, not federal office. These endorsements represent hundreds of volunteer hours performed by C-FAIR Board Members and community volunteers, who interviewed a record number of candidates for our PAC—more than 120 in total! All candidates in races being considered by C-FAIR were mailed an instruction letter to their address filed with the Kentucky Secretary of State or County Clerk. Those letters provided a link to an online candidate survey. Candidates who completed the survey, and whose answers were viewed favorably by the C-FAIR Board of Directors, were invited to an interview with a team of C-FAIR Board Members and supporters, who interviewed each candidate in a particular race in person General Election ‘18 or by phone. Following the interview the teams made recommendations of endorsement to the C-FAIR Board of Directors, which issues final endorsement decisions. Page 2 C-FAIR Endorsements Sometimes there are many Fairness-supportive candidates in a single race. While it is difficult, the C-FAIR Board of Directors endeavors to choose one candidate for endorsement in each Page 4 race.

  • 2014 Kentucky General Assembly Directory Visitors’ Guide
    2014 Kentucky General Assembly Directory Visitors’ Guide Paid for with state funds. Available in alternative format by request. Legislative Research Commission LRC Legislative Research Commission Foreword When the fi rst Kentucky General Assembly met in 1792, its members chose the term “commonwealth” to describe Kentucky. While there is no legal difference between a commonwealth and a state, Kentucky’s early leaders perhaps wanted to assert an indepen- dence of ideals and governance. By defi nition, a commonwealth is a political unit founded on law, united for the common good, and with supreme authority vested in the people. This ultimately de- fi nes Kentucky: government by the people and for the people. Like most states, Kentucky has a part-time citizen legislature with members from diverse backgrounds and communities. All 138 members, however, serve year-round as legislators, representing constituents, helping them solve problems, and studying new ideas. Of Kentucky’s three branches of government—execu- tive, judicial, and legislative—the legislative is the one closest to the people and the one into which Kentuck- ians have the most direct input. Consequently, it is benefi cial to both the legislature and our citizens that the work of the General Assembly be understood and the legislative process be used to its full potential. Kentucky General Assembly Directory iii This publication has been prepared to help you better understand how your General Assembly conducts business during a legislative session.
