Application Provides Kentuckians Easier Access to Filing Forms

The Office of the Secretary of State recently launched a new online application, the Commonwealth of Kentucky's Becoming a Candidate Document System, that allows potential candidates to complete their election filing forms electronically for printing.

The application has provided an electronic means for Kentucky citizens seeking an elected office to download or request receipt of all necessary election filing documents. The Becoming a Candidate Document System is now the quickest way to receive the documents in the Commonwealth of Kentucky.

"The 2018 election cycle is what's known in Kentucky as a county election year, so it will feature thousands of candidates,” said Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes, Kentucky's chief elections official. “As Secretary of State, we've launched online voter registration and made military voting easier with the use of technology, so it's natural that we tackle making the filing process simpler for candidates with a new filing portal online."

The application is presented in a responsive design, allowing constituents of the Commonwealth the ability to access the form across multiple devices.

The Becoming a Candidate Document System was provided to the Office of the Secretary of State by Frankfort-based Kentucky Interactive, LLC, aka Kentucky.gov, via a public-private partnership.
