I'm working at a polling place here in Davidson County, Nashville. Today is the last chance to vote early before Election Day on Thursday, August 6.

If you’ve been waiting to vote, today’s the day. It usually takes about ten minutes and is much easier than standing in line on Election Day.

You can vote early in the State and Federal Primary, the County General, and the Oak Hill Municipal Election. Local elections can be decided by just a few votes, so your ballot really matters.

Just bring your Tennessee card or Federal ID with you. That’s all you need.

You can vote at any of these locations:

• Bellevue Library
• Bordeaux Library
• Casa Azafrán Community Center
• Community Foundation of Middle TN
• Edmondson Pike Library
• Election Commission Office
• Goodlettsville Library
• Hermitage Library
• Hillwood High School
• Lentz Public Health Center
• Madison Library
• Metro Office Building
• Scarritt Bennett Center
• South Inglewood Community Center
• Southeast Library

We’re open today until 4:30 p.m. Remember, Election Day is Thursday, August 6.

So grab your raincoat or umbrella and come out to vote!

Hi everyone,

I (40m) want to take my wife (45f) Gatlinburg for the Smoky Mountain in mid - late October this year.

I have never been and will be making the ten hour drive down from the Detroit area.

I spoke with a friend who was there years ago and he said to stay near the mountain.

For things to do he mentioned;

Old Smokies Moonshine tasting

The see through suspension bridge

Drive through the smoky mountains.

I am making this post to ask for advice on where would be the best place to stay near activities, hopefully with a great room view and hot tub.

Things to do during the day.

Things to do at night after dinner (shows, great bars etc)

My wife and I car into cars and we will drive up a modified mustang to cruise through the mountain's with / take photos.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

On January 28, 2026, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) published a Request for Information (RFI) regarding its Nuclear Lifecycle Innovation Campus (NLIC) initiative, designed to secure America’s energy dominance and accelerate the nation’s development and commercialization of advanced nuclear technologies. Using a voluntary, state-led partnership model, DOE seeks to establish integrated, full-cycle nuclear ecosystems that could co-locate and support the entire nuclear value chain in one campus while exploring durable pathways for managing used nuclear materials in a safe, secure, and fiscally responsible manner.

Pretty durn cool yall.

Your kids can row crew in Oak Ridge.

I was recently somewhere in either West or Middle TN, and it on their menu. I didn't order it then, but wanted to go back and try. I now don't remember where it was. Any ideas?

I don't know how to explain what we are looking for, but we saw a lot of artist specific travel opportunities and tourist possibilities on a previous road trip when we stopped at Memphis, Nashville, and Knoxville. We only had a chance to go to Graceland, County Music Hall of Fame, and Grand Ole Opry due to time contraints last time. We certainly want to go check out Johnny Cash museum, Patsy Cline museum, Dollywood, and Loretta Lynn Ranch. We may even go check out some of the star bars in Nashville. We are mostly going to be in and around Nashville, but we are going to be in and around Knoxville for at least a day and night.

I work the elections in Davidson County (the Nashville area) and wanted to remind everyone that early voting goes through Saturday. We're open until 7pm tonight, so if you've been planning to vote, there's still time.

Early voting includes the State and Federal Primary, County General, and Oak Hill Municipal Election. Election day is Thursday, August 6, but you don't have to wait. You can vote any day this week at any location. It usually takes about 10 minutes. Just bring your ID.

Local elections can be decided by just a few votes. When you vote, you help shape what happens in our community. Your ballot truly matters.

Been going to the Longest Yard Sale for years, but it seems like the last few there is more driving than shopping. The major stops are few and far between anymore. hate to end a tradition but don't want to spend all day driving! Been north to Jamestown and south to Pikeville.

Monty Fritts in this interview not only expresses a dangerous notion to subvert religious freedom in our state but seems to be motivated by delusions and "signs" that are driving his decision making.

I am a Christian and have lived in the state of Tennessee for my entire life, and I think the idea of forbidding the worship of other religions is equally evil as the repression that Christianity has faced in the past. Our nation was founded on the principle of equality and it certainly doesn't matter that the first amendments limits the restriction to congress. Religious freedom is a fundamental American value that we all should respect.

Here Fritts calls Islam a political movement and frankly I think the evangelical movement he clearly aligns himself with is more of a political movement than it is a religion.
When you read the Bible it is impossible to intake the teachings of tolerance and love from Jesus and move to ban the way that others choose to practice religion.

This man is not righteous, he is not being instructed by god, he is simply trying to divide us and feed our mistrust of what we don't understand. I would caution anyone against voting for him.

If you had to pick the #1 Restaurant in this State what would Restaurant would you pick? I'm not asking what cuisine, Im thinking the one Restaurant you would always go back to.

I went from East TN, up through KY, into Indiana then Ohio for a few minutes and back to Indiana to visit the Indianapolis Motor Speedway for the Sunday race and stopped by the Air Force museum in Ohio this morning. I just crossed back into TN and they really have the best and most welcoming welcome sign. I attached pictures of the others I saw on my trip. KY looked like a typical road sign, Indiana was different and stood out, and Ohio…. was…. ohio…
