Thank you League of Women Voters of Knoxville/Knox County ‼️ Today, we explore WHERE to early vote.

‼️ IMPORTANT: There are 2 new early voting locations this cycle: East Knoxville and Northwest Knoxville. These locations are different than the August early voting locations.

EARLY VOTING BEGINS TOMORROW, Oct. 14 and runs through Oct. 29. 🗳️

You can vote at ANY early voting location.

Vote on your lunch break, before/after work, running errands.

Typically, there are shorter lines making voting quick and easy.

Make a plan to vote. Make a plan to let your voice be heard.

They’re counting on us staying home. We won’t. ✊

When people try to make voting harder to hold onto power, protecting the vote is an act of resistance.

TN: this is the LAST Poll Observer training before Nov. 3. Join us tomorrow at 6:00 CT

📰 OT in the News 🗞️

“Organize Tennessee, a voter advocacy group listed these concerns as part of an Aug. 29 “Democracy Summit” partly focused on the possibility of voter suppression during the upcoming midterms.”

“Cicely Sharp of Memphis previously volunteered as a poll observer. But after her congressional district was splintered following the Supreme Court decision, she decided she needed to do more. Sharp applied for an open position as a Shelby County coordinator with Organize Tennessee, allowing her to work across the state.

📰 OT in the news! 🗞️

“Organize Tennessee (Organize TN), a nonpartisan voting rights organization, dispatched over 100 polling observers across the state during last month’s primaries. As stated in the organization’s August Election Protection Report, which the Prospect exclusively obtained, observers documented 153 different incidents that included ballot distribution errors, voter misinformation and intimidation, and the presence of uniformed law enforcement and candidate presence at polling locations.

One major incident involving likely unlawful police presence occurred at polling locations in Henry County, along the state’s northwestern border. Anonymous poll observers with Organize TN documented County Sheriff Josh Frey entering and consulting with deputies who were stationed inside polling places. Frey was on the ballot, running unopposed for re-election. He was in uniform.”

Poll observers in Tennessee recorded dozens of incident reports in their primary, a few months before this year’s highly contested midterm elections

Happy Labor Day from Organize Tennessee! ⚒️🤝✊✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿

Today we’re honoring the labor movement: the workers and unions who fought for the weekend, the 8-hour day, safe workplaces, and the right to organize that so many of us take for granted. That fight isn’t history it’s happening right now, in workplaces across Tennessee.

Last weekend at our summit, we were proud to host a union panel where organizers broke down exactly how to build power in your own workplace. They discussed knowing your rights to taking the first steps toward organizing. Huge thanks to our panelists for showing up and sharing real, practical knowledge with our community.

Solidarity isn’t just a word — it’s a practice. Thank you to every union member, organizer, and worker who’s ever stood up for the person next to them.

⚒️
