    Polls open at 6 a.m. and close at 6 p.m., "prevailing time", once the last voter in line at 6 p.m. has voted (KRS 118.035(1); SBE 2026 Election Calendar). Kentucky spans two zones: most of the state, including Frankfort, is Eastern time and the western part Central, so the last polls close at 6:00 PM CST = 00:00 UTC on 4 Nov (Eastern-time polls close at 23:00 UTC on 3 Nov). No tallies or partial results may be publicized before 6 p.m. prevailing time (KRS 117.275(13)); counties transmit unofficial results to the State Board of Elections over a secure connection (KRS 117.275(14)), and the Board posts them on its 2026 results page. Mail-in absentee ballots must reach the county clerk before 6 p.m. on election day (SBE 2026 Election Calendar), so no mail ballots arrive after polling day; provisional ballots are tabulated afterwards by the county boards (KRS 117.275(11)). The window closes at 6:00 AM EST on 4 Nov: an estimate of when the overnight count stops moving, not a published time; no 2022 timing data point was found.

    County certification. Each county completes a hand-to-eye audit, then the county board of elections certifies its total vote for every office to the Secretary of State (form SBE 49) "following the conclusion of the hand-to-eye audit established in KRS 117.383 and not later than 12 p.m., prevailing time, on the Tuesday following all elections" (KRS 118.425(4)) — noon on Tuesday 10 Nov 2026 per the SBE 2026 Election Calendar. The window opens on 4 Nov, when the audit period starts, and closes at noon CST on 10 Nov (the Central-time counties' deadline). A candidate within 1% may request a county recanvass before 4 p.m. on 10 Nov; any recanvass is held at 9 a.m. on Thursday 12 Nov (KRS 117.305(1), (3)).

    State certification: "The State Board of Elections shall meet, to count and tabulate the votes received by the different candidates as certified to the Secretary of State no later than the third Monday after the election", and issues the certificates of election for U.S. Senate and U.S. House (KRS 118.425(1), (5)) — by Monday 23 Nov 2026 per the SBE 2026 Election Calendar. The Board meets in Frankfort, so the window closes at the end of that day, Eastern time. Precedent: the exact date of the Board's 2022 certification meeting could not be confirmed from a state source; the Board's typeset "Official 2022 General Election Results" report is timestamped 21 Nov 2022 and its signed scan ("Certified General Election Results", reposted 17 Jan 2023) 23 Nov 2022, both before that year's third Monday (28 Nov). The 2024 certification was amended on 9 Dec 2024 (SBE 2024 results page). A recount is automatic for U.S. Senate and U.S. House when a candidate is defeated by not more than 0.5% of the votes cast; it must begin by 9 a.m. local time on the second Tuesday after the election (17 Nov 2026) and finish within 14 days, Sundays excluded, and no certificate of election is issued while it is pending (KRS 120.157). Other candidates may petition for a recount by the second Tuesday after the election (KRS 120.185(1)(d)). The 30-day contest deadline in KRS 120.155 is written for state, county, district and city offices; no contest deadline for congressional seats was confirmed.
