Davidson County residents are included in a few communities invited to weigh in on election protocol. Debates surrounding dates, hours and locations for early voting typically fall along party lines. While many party leaders encourage voting, when and where that happens is often left for scrutiny by governing bodies. In the case of the November 8, 2022 election parties, local leaders are promoting the public comment period due to close on 5 p.m. Friday, September 9 for Davidson County voters.
