Early voting begins across the state on Wednesday, October 14.
In Madison County, early voting will be held at the auditorium in the Madison County Agriculture Complex located at 311 North Parkway in Jackson, and will be held from October 14-29.
Voting hours are 9 a.m. until 4 p.m., weekdays.
Saturday hours will be from 9 a.m. until noon. On the last two days of early voting, October 28 and 29, voting hours will be extended until 6 p.m.
In order to vote in person, you must present a photo ID issued by the State of Tennessee such as a driver’s license or a handgun permit. ID’s issued by other states will not be accepted.
Alternatively, you can present a photo ID issued by the U.S. government such as a passport or a military ID. The ID does not have to be current. It can be expired.
The voter registration card is not required for voting, but it is helpful to the election officials if you have it. Social distancing will be practiced and entrance to the voting place will be limited to a number deemed to be safe by election officials.
Voters are encouraged to wear a face covering and have their ID out and prepared to show when they enter the building. To accommodate social distancing, fewer voting machines are being used. Voters are encouraged to view a sample ballot prior to voting and hopefully reduce the time spent in the voting booth. The sample ballot can be viewed on the election commission website at www.madisonelection.com.
