NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Tomorrow, October 31, is the last day to early vote in Tennessee before election day.
According to Tennessee Secretary of State Tre Hargett's office, more than 1.7 million voters already cast their ballot during early voting. In-person turnout is at more than 1.64 million — which has outpaced the 2020 numbers.
Our Chris Davis did a report on what early voting totals look like this year in comparison to 2020, if you want to get a more in-depth look at the numbers.
In Davidson County, the voting precincts will be open from 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. for voters on Friday. If you are unsure where to go to vote, we have the schedule for you!
All you need to bring is your valid photo identification — a driver's license or photo ID issued by the Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security, by the Tennessee state government, or by the federal government are acceptable even if they are expired.

Here’s a beautiful story of how one mother turned her grief journey into a gathering of gratitude… and organ donation awareness.
Robb Coles highlights a special event organized by Cari Hollis – whose 26-year old son Austin died two years ago. Austin agreed to be an organ donor – and that single gesture saved multiple lives.
Cari reached out to as many recipients she could find – several of whom traveled to Nashville for an emotional celebration in Austin’s honor. One woman – whose life was saved by receiving Austin’s lungs – put it simply: “He’s my angel”.
