Please Vote Nashville

For the Aug. 3 Election, The Contributor teamed up with Please Vote Nashville to create a guide of offices and candidates. Since its inception, Please Vote Nashville’s goal has been to provide information on every candidate on the ballot. The ballot breakdown also gives a description of the office to give voters a sense of what exactly the candidate should do in the job.

We've listed the candidate and office information in this issue, but a downloadable file can be found at https://www.pleasevotenashville.org/

Early voting begins July 14 and runs through July 29. Visit nashville.gov for more information on where to vote.
