In Tennessee, the election that matters most isn’t in November, it’s on August 6th.

14% OF VOTERS DECIDE 95% OF OUR LAWMAKERS.

The August primary decides 95% of our state lawmakers, but only 14% of voters show up. If you only vote in November, you're picking a side. Vote in August, you're choosing the person.

WHY THIS MATTERS

1

Who you
choose counts.

State lawmakers make decisions about the issues closest to home: our schools, roads, safety, and affordability.

Want to continue to afford to live in Tennessee? Vote in the primary.

2

Your vote carries more weight.

So few people vote in August that each ballot decides far more than it would in November. In many districts, a few hundred votes decide who represents you.

3

The people already showing up may not share your values.

When only 14% vote, a small group chooses for everyone.

Want to make your own decisions? Vote in the primary.

When you skip the primary, you give away your power.
