No Voter Registration Record In Tennessee

New voter applications are down from this time in 2004 in Tennessee:

Tennessee registered more than 291,000 new voters between Jan. 1 and Sept. 30, which is down from four years ago from the same period a year.

“Last time was huge,” State Election Coordinator Brook Thompson said. “But this time is huge, too.”

Between Jan. 1 and Sept. 30, 2004, Tennessee saw more than 344,500 people register, according to numbers provided by Thompson. The deadline for registering to vote in the upcoming presidential election is Monday.

But some counties are seeing record registration this year.
