Kentucky Trivia: Section 68 of Kentucky’s 1891 Constitution provides that the “Governor and all civil officers” are subject to impeachment. The Commonwealth has had four impeachments. First, in 1803 Kentucky impeached the surveyor of Bourbon County. Next, the Assembly impeached, tried in abstention, and convicted “Honest Dick” in 1888. Then in 1916, the House impeached 48 to 45 McCreary County Judge Executive, but the Senate acquitted and finally Ward Burnette.
