About the Davidson County Election Commission
The Davidson County Election Commission (DCEC) was established in 1945 and is regulated by State of Tennessee law. The DCEC's mission is to maintain voter registration files and conduct all elections for Davidson County (Federal, State, Metro) and the six incorporated satellite cities within Davidson County.
The DCEC is governed by five commissioners appointed by the State Election Commission for two year terms. The commissioners are charged with ensuring compliance with state election laws and operating within Metro's purchasing and budgetary laws. The commission appoints the Administrator of Elections, who serves as the county's Chief Election Administrator, and is responsible for managing all election commission operations and personnel. The DCEC also approves election plans, certifies election results and participates in professional organizations.
The Administrator of Elections keeps voter registration records, maintains voting histories for each voter, and provides information concerning voter registration, absentee voting, elections, campaigns, and campaign financial disclosures. The Administrator of Elections also qualifies prospective candidates for ballots and trains poll officials.
Warehouse employees store voting machines and perform maintenance on the machines year round. They prepare voting machines for elections and work to obtain suitable voting locations. Warehouse employees are also involved in conducting elections and providing election results.
The DCEC meets once each month. We are located on the first floor of the Metro Office Building at 800 2nd Avenue South.
