FRANKFORT, Ky. (WMDJ) — Floyd County was among 12 Kentucky counties selected for a post-election inquiry following last month’s primary election.
Kentucky Attorney General Russell Coleman announced Tuesday that Floyd County was chosen through a random drawing required by state law. Pike County was also included among the counties selected.
According to the Attorney General’s Office, the inquiries are conducted after each primary election to help ensure election integrity across the commonwealth.
Investigators with the Department of Criminal Investigations will review election procedures and records to determine whether any irregularities occurred during the May primary election.
After the reviews are completed, findings from each county inquiry will be presented to a grand jury in the county that was audited.
The 12 counties selected this year are Rowan, Oldham, Franklin, Daviess, Laurel, Adair, Scott, Union, Fulton, Carroll, Floyd and Pike counties.
