116.037 Designation of precincts in area ceded or leased to the government of the

United States.

In each county having within its boundaries a geographical area which has been ceded or

leased to the government of the United States, the county clerk shall designate the

precincts to which voters claiming Kentucky residence for voting purposes shall be

assigned. If the ceded or leased territory extends beyond a single county, the county clerk

in each county encompassing a part of the territory shall assign voters to the appropriate

precincts. In making the assignments of absentee voters in any county that contains all or

portions of more than one (1) congressional or state legislative district, any advantage

shall be given to the district containing the largest territory.
