About Keith

A Message From Keith

“The Taul family has farming and entrepreneurial roots that run deep in Hardin County. I’m an eighth-generation farmer who has grown up serving this community. My wife and I have given this opportunity a great deal of thought and prayer – and I look forward to the chance at serving as your next Judge Executive.

More than anything, I’m ready to help protect our community and way of life. I am guided by conservative, Christian values and I am 100% pro-life. If elected, I’ll fight tooth and nail to get our residents’ voices heard on our important issues!

For the past 35 years, I have worked to help organizations run more smoothly and cut overspending. I believe my diverse background has equipped me with the experience and connections I’ll need to capitalize on the growth happening across Hardin County and at Fort Knox.

Our residents have a lot to be proud of and even more to look forward to. I humbly ask for your support as I connect with our local families. Thank you for paying attention to the future of Hardin County!”

Upon graduation from West Hardin High School, Keith started attending classes at Elizabethtown Community College (ECC). It was here that Keith discovered his passion for engineering. He transferred to the University of Kentucky, graduating with a Bachelor of Science and a Master of Science in Agricultural Engineering.

Keith landed his first engineering job in Chicago, working at International Harvester. He then moved to Somerset, KY, to work for GE, before returning to Hardin County in 1988. Back home, Keith was part of the initial start-up of the AP Technoglass plant in Elizabethtown (now AGC Automotive).
