But first, a Toast!
For the second year now, alcohol sales will be allowed in Lexington while the polls are open because of an ordinance change approved last year by the Urban County Council.
Lexington’s Urban County Council voted to repeal the ordinance banning Election Day alcohol sales in Fayette county.
Vice Mayor Linda Gorton said, “It was an outdated law, and it’s costly to the alcohol industry. Now our businesses can function just like any other day.”
The ban was a holdover from the Prohibition era when saloons sometimes served as polling places.
