Law enforcement across Middle Tennessee sets plans for possibility of Election Day unrest

As thousands prepare to vote on Election Day across Tennessee, various law enforcement agencies have plans of how to respond in the instance of civil unrest. 

Metro Nashville Police released a statement Monday afternoon. It read in part: “While the MNPD expects tomorrow’s election to be free of disruptions, each of the eight precincts has established a team of officers to respond to calls for service at any Nashville polling location.” 

Sumner County, Wilson County, Rutherford County, Williamson County Sheriff’s Offices, and Murfreesboro Police also have plans which include extending shifts, adding patrols, and monitoring polls.
