With the October 5 voter registration deadline in sight, the Davidson County Election Commission announced extended business hours, giving new voters extra time to prepare for the November 3 election. On Saturday, October 3, the office at 1417 Murfreesboro Pike will be open 8:00 a.m.-4:30 p.m. and on Monday, October 5, hours will extend to 7:00 p.m.
“Anyone who needs to register is welcome to come by our office this Saturday or after work on Monday,” said Jeff Roberts, administrator of elections. “We will be happy to help them get ready to vote.”
“After completing their registration, we can go over their voting options – Absentee by Mail, Early Voting in Person, and Election Day in Person,” continued Roberts. “We’ll have Absentee Ballot Request forms available, along with Early Voting schedules and Election Day location information. We want all Davidson County voters to be fully prepared to participate in the November 3 election.”
New voters also have the convenient option of registering online at GoVoteTN.com, a safe and secure site. “In person or online, the important thing is to get registered by October 5,” encouraged Roberts. “Then decide how you intend to cast your ballot and take action now. We’re here to assist.”
