Voters in Mayfield go to the polls today to decide whether or not to allow packaged alcohol sales in the city. Polls are open from 6am-6pm.

Those who support the repeal of prohibition say it will increase revenue for the city's budget. Those who oppose alcohol sales say it's about a lifestyle free of many of the problems the easy availability of alcoholic beverages could bring with it.

Mayfield already allows liquor by-the-drink sales. Wet campaigns in Mayfield have been defeated in 1992, 1983 and 1934. In January, Graves County voters voted against allowing packaged alcohol sales within county lines.
