Two Sumner County churches have agreed to offer their facilities for early voting locations in 2020, according to Sumner County Administrator of Elections Lori Atchley.
Both Freedom Church in Gallatin near Vietnam Veterans Boulevard and the Hendersonville Church of Christ near West Main Street will be used for early voting precincts for all three elections in the coming year.
Atchley said her office had been scouting out locations for several months following elections in 2018.
“People were parking and driving on the sidewalks during early voting here at the Sumner County Administration Building,” she said. “It was getting dangerous and the people who were coming here for other business like paying their car taxes were having trouble getting in. We had just outgrown this location.”
