Early voting for the County General Election (and Federal/State Primaries) begins on Friday, July 17. Early voting is open to any registered voter in the county. Any registered voter may vote at any one of the six (6) early voting sites within the county regardless of their actual place of residence. Early voting is open July 17 to August 1. Election Day is August 6.
Tennessee has nonpartisan voter registration. There is no option to affiliate with a political party on the voter registration form. Voters do not declare affiliation with a party in order to vote in primary elections, but they must choose one party’s ballot, i.e., you may choose either the Republican or Democratic ballot for the Federal/State Primaries. ALL of the County candidates will be on both the Republican and Democratic Federal/State Primary ballots whether candidates are Republicans, Democrats, or Non-Partisan (e.g., School Board). You may vote for any candidate in the County General Election regardless of political affiliation.
