FRANKFORT, Ky (WKYT) -- Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes predicts a record number of voters will cast ballots with statewide voter turnout likely between 62 and 64 percent.

“Voters have many important decisions to make on Election Day,” said Grimes. “I urge all eligible Kentuckians to be a part of the process and make their voices heard.”

To find your polling location, go online to the Kentucky Voter Information Center (https://cdcbp.ky.gov/VICWeb/index.jsp).

Polls tend to be busiest during the morning and evening rush hours and at lunchtime, according to the secretary of state's website.

You must either be known by a precinct officer or produce a driver’s license, social security card, credit card, or other form of identification that contains both a picture and signature in order to cast a ballot.

As long as you are in line by 6 p.m. local time on voting day, you will be allowed to cast your ballot.

With approximately 130,000 more registered voters compared with 2008, Grimes predicts a record number of ballots will be cast in the November 6 election.
