Any person desiring to vote on election day shall give his name and address to
the clerk of the election. If the person's name is listed on the precinct list
furnished by the State Board of Elections as provided in KRS 117.025 and if no
challenge is made, he shall sign his name on the precinct list in the space
opposite his printed name. The voter's signature shall constitute his verification
that he is a properly registered and qualified voter. The voter shall then retire
alone to cast his vote on the voting machine. The county board of elections
may provide to each precinct the original registration form of each voter entitled
to vote in that precinct. These forms shall be used to compare signatures in
those precincts to which the forms are provided.
If supplemental paper ballots are used, as provided in KRS 118.215, after
voting on the voting machine the voter shall take the supplemental paper ballot
with the stub intact and retire alone to the voting booth provided for voting
paper ballots. After voting the supplemental paper ballot, the voter shall
remove the numbered stub, hand the stub to an election official and deposit the
voted ballot in the locked ballot box.
