EARLY VOTING FOR THE NOV. 3 STATE AND FEDERAL GENERAL ELECTION IS GOING ON NOW THROUGH THURSDAY, OCT. 29.
You’re vote matters, Knoxville! Early voting easily allows you to avoid Election Day crowds and take advantage of the flexibility of evening and Saturday hours. In addition, there are multiple polling locations in many counties. Unfortunately, it’s a little too late to register to vote now but make sure you’re prepared next time by following our voter registration guide.
Tennessee early voters can find their early voting and Election Day hours, and polling locations at GoVoteTN.com. You may also view and mark sample ballots and much more with the GoVoteTN app or online at GoVoteTN.com. (The GoVoteTN app is free to download in the App Store or Google Play.)
During early voting and on Election Day, Tennesseans are encouraged to wear a face covering and maintaining a six-foot distance from poll officials and other voters. Voters should expect to see signs with further safety instructions at their polling locations. All poll officials will be wearing face coverings and are trained to take appropriate protective measures.
More information about the precautions being taking for in-person voting during COVID-19 is available from the Secretary of State’s office:
