Bill Summary

A RESOLUTION recognizing the guiding principles of elections in Kentucky.

AI Summary

This resolution, adopted by the House of Representatives of the General Assembly of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, recognizes and affirms seven guiding principles for conducting elections in the state. These principles emphasize that elections should be secure yet accessible, representative of the citizenry without favoring particular outcomes, stable and uniform in their application, reliable and accurate in their results, transparent to the public at every stage, accountable to the laws enacted by legislators, and uphold the principle of federalism by respecting the states' primary role in regulating elections. The resolution states that adhering to these principles leads to benefits such as increased voter turnout, more representative government, and greater public confidence in the electoral process, ultimately deterring abuse and reinforcing the foundation of self-government.
