West's Tennessee Code Annotated
Title 2. Elections
Chapter 2. Voter Registration
Part 1. Registration by Election Commissions
Effective: April 16, 2014
T. C. A. § 2-2-107
§ 2-2-107. Multiple registrations; residence on real property located in both municipality and unincorporated area in county; change of habitation
Currentness
(a)(1) A person shall be registered as a voter of the precinct in which the person is a resident, and, if provided for by municipal charter or general law, may also be registered in a municipality in which the person owns real property in order to participate in that municipality's elections.
(2) Notwithstanding any provision of this title to the contrary, if a person's residence is located on real property which is located in both a municipality and in an unincorporated area in the county in which the municipality is located, then such person shall be eligible to vote in municipal elections if municipal taxes are assessed on the portion of real property located within the municipality. In a county having a metropolitan form of government, “unincorporated area,” as used in this subdivision (a)(2), includes an area outside the boundaries of any of the smaller cities within the metropolitan government.
(3) Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, if a municipal charter provides for property rights voting, no more than two (2) persons shall be entitled to vote based upon the ownership of an individual tract of property regardless of the number of property owners.
(b) If a voter moves such voter's habitation outside the precinct where the person is a registered voter but continues to be a resident of the precinct, the county election commission shall determine the person's rights and duties on the basis of the location of the person's last residence in the precinct before the person's change of habitation.
(c) In order to timely correct voter registration records, municipalities which have annexed territory or changed any district or ward boundary shall provide each county election commission affected by the change with the following:
(1) Maps depicting the area;
(2) A copy of the ordinance or resolution calling for the change denoting, if applicable, which wards or districts the annexed or changed area will be a part of; and
(3) A copy of the census taken for the annexation, if available, with names and addresses within the annexed area.
