The Jefferson County Clerk's Office - Election Center is a government administration entity based in Louisville, Kentucky. It operates as a bipartisan body composed of County Clerk staff responsible for conducting federal, state, and local elections, and for maintaining voter registration records and past election history for Jefferson County. In its role as chair of the Board of Elections, the County Clerk ensures that election-related mandates of the Kentucky Constitution and Kentucky Revised Statutes are met. The office serves Jefferson County residents as the local authority for election governance and voter record-keeping. In July 2024, the office experienced a ransomware cyberattack that temporarily closed all branches and disrupted operations, with officials later confirming that some information was stolen. Past initiatives include making 2005–2011 records available online through a searchable database and introducing a district map in 2023.
