Early voting is currently underway in Davidson County for the Aug. 4 state and federal primary election, and the county general election. Local officials are encouraging voters to prepare before heading to the polls because this election features the longest ballot in Metro history.
It's also the first federal election to take place after the Republican-controlled Tennessee legislature split Nashville into three new Congressional districts.
For this Citizen Nashville, we'll be joined by Davidson County Election Commissioner Jeff Roberts to answer questions about voter registration, absentee voting and the voting process.
Later this hour, we'll hear from liberal and conservative voters — and a first-time voter — about the issues that are most important to them in this election.
But first is @ us!, the weekly segment where host Khalil Ekulona and digital lead Anna Gallegos-Cannon respond to listeners' concerns and comments.
Guests:
Jeff Roberts, Davidson County Election commissioner
Tequila Johnson, co-founder and vice president of The Equity Alliance
Sally Carlson-Bancroft, liberal voter
Chris Chumley, conservative voter
Joe Kwan, first-time voter
