Nortonville Voters say NO to Alcohol

By Jacque Day

Nortonville, Ky. – A wet-dry referendum for the Hopkins County city of Nortonville got an overwhelming "No" vote in tonight's primary election. As a 5th class city, Nortonville is eligible for moist status. Moist means some restaurants which also sell food could offer alcoholic beverages by the drink. The unofficial result, with 100 percent of votes counted, shows that more than 78 percent voted not to allow liquor by the drink.
