This Is Nashville

How to vote in Nashville, and why

Listen Later

With Election Day just three days away, we're talking about voting!

Today, we'll bring you an update on early voting turnout and walk through some basics about how to vote, why to do it, and where to find the information you need. We'll also hear from folks who are out talking with voters and potential voters about why they cast their ballot — and why some choose not to.

But first, it's time to respond to your feedback with a special Monday edition of our @ us! segment.

Guests:

  • Jeff Roberts, administrator of elections for Davidson County

  • Jessica Williams, communications director for The Equity Alliance

  • Yusuf Dogan, first-time voter

  • Erica Perry, executive director of Black Nashville Votes

  • Garrett Floyd, chair of the Nashville Young Republicans

    • This episode was produced by Steve Haruch.
