From News 12: The voter registration deadline for the Tennessee Presidential Primary is approaching quickly.

 

The deadline to register to vote is February 5 for anyone wanting to vote in the state primary election.

 

The Tennessee Presidential Preference Primary and County Primary Elections will then take place on March 5, 2024.

 

“The voter registration deadline for the Presidential Preference Primary is fast approaching, and we want citizens to register as well as cast their vote,” said Secretary of State Tre Hargett. “We want eligible voters in Tennessee to get registered and know that in Tennessee, it is easy to vote but hard to cheat in our state.”

 

Tennesseans can register to vote, view the sample ballot, find polling locations and much more on the GoVoteTN app.

 

Additionally, early voting will begin on February 14 and last until February 27.

 

Absentee ballots must be requested by February 27 as well.

 

“Almost one million citizens cast their ballots early during the 2020 Presidential Preference Primary,” said Coordinator of Elections Mark Goins. “We encourage all eligible Tennesseans who have not registered to vote to do so, vote early, and let your voices be heard.”

 

Any U.S. citizen with a driver’s license or Tennessee photo ID can register or update their registration.
