You Have the Right . . .

. . .to Assistance When You Vote

If you have difficulty reading or understanding
English, you have the right to bring someone you
choose to help you vote.


You may choose a family member, friend, or anyone
else you trust.
That person cannot be your boss or
a representative of your labor union.


At your polling place, tell an election official that
you will be voting with assistance.
You and the
person helping you may be asked to sign a form.


If an election official tries to stop you from voting
with assistance, show them
this card. Tell them you
have the right to assistance under Section 208 of
the Voting Rights Act.


Section 208 also protects voters who need assistance
because of blindness, disability, or difficulty reading
or writing.

Congressional Redistricting

2026USCongressNEW.jpg

For nearly two decades, Tennessee's 9th Congressional District provided critical federal representation for Memphis and Shelby County. However, the recent redistricting effectively erased this boundary, carving up the nation's largest city with a Black majority population and distributing its voters across neighboring, predominantly conservative districts. Davidson County was also completely redrawn during the May 2026 special legislative session. The 5th Congressional District has been moved entirely out of Davidson County. Instead, the city is now divided among the 4th, 6th, and 7th Congressional Districts.
