How to get your Kentucky voter file
Kentucky isn't pre-loaded, so you provide the voter file and we load it into Motion51 for you. Here's the official source — request it from the state, send us the file, and you're ready to cut turf.
- Where to request it
- Kentucky State Board of Elections (SBE)140 Walnut Street, Frankfort, KY 40601; phone (502) 573-7100; [email protected]
- Cost
- Per the current SBE pricing schedule: statewide file $4,000; per-precinct paper or electronic lists $10 each with a $40 minimum order; mailing labels $30 per thousand ($30 minimum). Electronic format available at the same rate as the equivalent paper list. Shipping additional.
- How to request
- Submit completed SBE-84 'Request for Voter Registration Data' form by mail or in person with payment. Special Requests section (page 2 of SBE-84) lets the requester narrow the pull (e.g., by precinct, district, party, age, vote-in-3-of-last-5).
- Turnaround
- Typically 2-4 weeks from receipt of completed SBE-84 + payment; faster for narrow subsets.
Costs and rules change — confirm the current details on the official page before you order. Each state also has use restrictions on voter data — check the official agency link above for the specifics. Once you have the file, we handle loading it, cutting turf, and getting your volunteers knocking.
