Here’s the dealio with voting if you’ve moved within Davidson County. Remember, early voting ends today at 6pm and election day is next Tuesday, November 7.
You can change your address up to five days before the election but if you don’t make it to one of the early voting sites today to do it you still can change your address on election day using “failsafe voting.”
• If you’ve moved within Davidson County in the last 90 days, you can vote early with no problem by just filling out a change of address form at the early voting site (early voting ends today, Thursday, November 2, at 6pm).
• If you’ve moved within Davidson County in the last 90 days and have not formally changed your address with the election commission, and do not vote at an early voting site, you can still vote on Nov. 7, but will have to either go to one of 5 “super sites†(see list below) or else go to 2 locations—first to their old polling place, and then to the new polling place.
• If you’ve moved more than 90 days ago and are still in Davidson County, you can vote as above (either at any early voting site by Thursday, or on Nov. 7 at a “super voting site†or by going to your old polling place and then to the new one).
• If you’ve moved more than 90 days ago to another county, you cannot vote in this election in Davidson County. Please contact the election commission for your new county for more information about registering.
The five “super voting sites†are:
1) Davidson County Election Commission (Howard School), 800 2nd Ave. South
2) Edmondson Pike Library, 5501 Edmondson Pike
3) Green Hills Library, 3701 Benham Ave.
4) Hermitage Library, 3700 James Kay Lane
5) Madison Library, 610 Gallatin Pike South
All you need to vote is your Voter Registration card. If you do not have your voter registration card, you can use your driver’s license or anything with your signature on it as a valid form of id.
