The registered columns count ballots by the voter's party, with unaffiliated voters under other. Party registration is not how anyone voted. Kentucky's workbook splits only Democrats and Republicans. The rest of its count is not split.

CSV for Oct 29
The statewide row and one row per county. Free to use with credit; source in every row.
Mail ballots returned (including military and overseas) plus in-person absentee votes, from the Board's daily county workbook. Updated Oct 29; retrieved Oct 30, 10:40 PM ET.
The Board labels these numbers unofficial and says not to compare them with election results.
The workbook splits only Democratic and Republican registrants, so other and unaffiliated voters are not shown.
In-person absentee means excused and no-excuse in-person voting before Election Day.
The workbook carries a date, not a time. The date is taken from the file name.
