• Find your precinct and ballot information at the Davidson County Election Commission website.

Between the lines: Because of redistricting in 2021, Nashville is divided into three U.S. House districts. This is the first time District 7, which includes parts of northern and western Davidson County, is an open seat since redistricting.

State of play: The seat has been viewed as safe for Republicans, but Democrats showed up in similar numbers for early voting.

• According to the Secretary of State, 18,203 voters cast Republican ballots during early voting, compared to 17,825 for Democrats.

What's next: The primary winners will meet in the general election on Dec. 2.
