2026 Primary Endorsements

 KFTC members are working for a day when all Kentuckians can thrive – when our lives and communities matter more than profits, and when every voice is heard in our democracy. To get there, we must elect leaders who share our values and who will govern for all of us.

That’s why voter engagement is a central focus for KFTC’s organizing. Members are sharing our vision for a better Kentucky across the state and listening to ideas from our neighbors. We’re registering, having conversations with, and mobilizing tens of thousands of voters.

And we’re supporting candidates who will work with and for us toward that vision. We are still making endorsement decisions for the primary. Our current list of endorsements is below:

• Shameka Parrish-Wright for Louisville Mayor

KFTC chapters and members make recommendations for endorsements, which are considered and decided by our elected statewide Executive Committee. The power of KFTC’s endorsement is in the action of Kentuckians. Find an event near you or virtual opportunities to get out the vote at www.KFTC.org/events.
