Super Tuesday Get Out and Vote Today

Registered Cannon County Voters are urged to come out and participate in Super Tuesday as  people in 12 states will be voting today between the various candidates running for the Republican nomination as President as well as the various candidates running for the Democratic nomination.  The day is also known as the “SEC primary” this year, after several Southern states that have ties to Southeastern Conference sports teams moved their primaries to this day, bolstering an already important day for candidates.   Local polls will be open from 7 in the morning until 7 in the evening.  According to the Cannon County Election office, 753 registered voters took part in the Early Voting process.  There are around 8500 registered voters in Cannon County at this time.  The office reminds everyone to bring a photo ID State or Federal issued.  Also if a voter has changed their name recently or have moved to a new residency, their information needs to be update.  Anyone that has changed their name or address will need to bring proof of residency for example a water bill or electricity bill with them when they vote.  WBRY will have the result of the election including the local tax referendum issue results on wbry.com and on Facebook later tonight.
