Surround words with double quotes to do an exact phrase search. For example: Typing "Kay Ivey" (including the surrounding double quotes) will only return documents that have those words in that exact order.

To exclude words explicitly, prefix the word with the "-" operator. For example: governor -"kay ivey" -lieutenant.
