Voting in Nashville? What To Do if Something Goes Wrong at the Polls
Election Day is tomorrow, Nov. 3, and poll observers will be stationed at all 178 Nashville polling precincts. Host Rachel Iacovone is joined by Selah Torralba, advocacy manager for the Tennessee Immigrant & Refugee Rights Coalition, to explain how poll observers can help, what to do if you run into a problem or feel intimidated, and how to make sure you’re headed to the right polling place. We also talk about language access and what voters should know if they’re worried about federal law enforcement at the polls.
