Nashville, TN, August 2, 2026 —
WSMV4 has released a detailed voter’s guide to assist Tennesseans in preparation for the upcoming Primary Election scheduled for August 6th.
The guide offers comprehensive information on candidates vying for numerous key positions. Voters can find details on candidates running for Governor, U.S. Senate, U.S. House of Representatives, and seats in both the Tennessee State Senate and Tennessee House of Representatives.
Beyond candidate information, the voter’s guide addresses essential aspects of the electoral process. It includes explanations on how to cast a ballot, clarifies the distinctions between primary and general elections, and outlines important dates leading up to and including election day.
A notable feature of the guide is its explanation of Tennessee’s open primary system. Under this system, registered voters have the flexibility to select which political party’s ballot they wish to use when voting in the primary. However, voters are restricted to choosing and voting on only one party’s ballot.
