Clark County Courthouse — Official Election Board Meeting Venue. The Clark County Election Board decided Tuesday night against a formal recount of ballots cast at four Jeffersonville High School precincts, instead voting to let candidates or party members file their own petitions if they want one. The decision follows a ballot scanner malfunction on Election Day that forced poll workers to move a data stick from a broken machine to a working one, raising questions about whether every vote was properly tabulated in a state Senate race separated by fewer than 300 votes.

Couple who celebrated engagement at Kentucky Castle sue over potential hidden cameras

A Virginia couple who celebrated their 2025 engagement at the Kentucky Castle in Versailles have filed a potential class-action lawsuit over allegations that cameras may have been hidden on the property by bourbon entrepreneur Wes Henderson . Henderson had been CEO of the Kentucky Castle’s parent company, TKC Hospitality Group, and its partner, TKC Distilling, until he was abruptly fired in October . Henderson, who apparently retains an ownership stake in the company, was fired after the Herald-Leader reported that family members have accused him in a sealed lawsuit of secretly filming them and others in private moments, including at the Kentucky Castle. Henderson has denied the allegations in a statement through an attorney and no criminal charges have been filed. Homeland Security has confirmed that it is investigating . No response to the lawsuit, which was filed Nov. 12, has been filed. Attorneys for Henderson and for the company did not immediately respond to requests for comment. But in a statement issued Thursday afternoon through a public relations agency that represents Henderson, The Kentucky Castle and TKC Hospitality, TKC Hospitality said it “unequivocally rejects the allegations suggesting that guests were secretly recorded while staying at our property.” TKC Hospitality
