Early voting for the August 1 primary election starts tomorrow, y’all! State Senator and Equity Alliance co-founder Charlane Oliver joins host Grace Fuisz to give us the scoop on voting in Nashville: Where to go, what to bring, and more importantly, why it matters. 

Here is a sample ballot for the Aug. 1 election with early voting locations and hours.

Here is a non-partisan voter guide for the Aug. 1 election.

Request an absentee ballot here. The deadline for the Aug. 1 election is July 25th. The USPS recommends mailing the form no later than July 18th.

Check your voter registration here.

If you haven’t yet registered to vote, you cannot vote in the Aug. 1 election — but you can still register for the Nov. 5th federal election.  

Thanks to Tecovas, our Western wear faves, for being our exclusive launch sponsor!
