Kentucky State Treasurer
The Kentucky State Treasurer is elected every four years along with the governor and other statewide officials. The treasurer, who can serve two terms, acts as the state's chief elected fiscal officer.[1] The salary is $110,000 a year.
The current treasurer, Allison Ball of Prestonsburg, Kentucky, is the first Republican elected to the post since 1944. She succeeded the term-limited Democrat Todd Hollenbach of Louisville, who instead became the 30th District Court judge.
