Grimes Asks KY Voters To Honor Veterans

{Frankfort, Kentucky}...Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes says Kentucky is home to more than 350,000 veterans. Grimes is calling for Kentuckians to let their votes in the November 6th election be a show of respect for military veterans. Voters can get lapel buttons to show they voted in honor of a veteran, and those buttons can be personalized to reflect the name of the veteran being honored. The program has been in place across the country since 2007.

People can request their button from their local county clerk's office or by going online at http://www.sos.ky.gov/veterans .
