Your vote is your voice in government. So make your voice heard! You can protect your family by electing candidates who stand for traditional family values. But you can't vote until you register.

Who May Register: Any citizen of the United States who is or will be 18 years of age or older before the date of the next election and who is a resident of Tennessee may register to vote unless disqualified under the law.

How to Register: Qualified voters may register to vote by obtaining and completing a voter registration form and filing the form with the local county election commission, either in person or by mail.

When to Register: In order to participate in an election, a qualified voter must be properly registered no later than 30 days before the election (this election's registration deadline is October 4, 2008). The election commission office will process any by-mail voter registration form that has been postmarked at least 30 days before the election.
