Why the most recent election has the least behind it
August 6, 2026 sits at the top with the least detail, and that is the state’s publishing order rather than a gap in the count. Tennessee posts its precinct-level archive after an election is certified, so the newest result is always the thinnest and fills in later. 15 of these 16 elections have precinct figures today.
County offices — sheriff, county mayor, the commission, the school board — come only from this county’s own election commission, because the state publishes none of them anywhere. We hold those for 1 election here. Where a year shows state and federal races only, the county offices were on a ballot we have not read yet.
This describes what our software could read, not how well this county does its job. Publishing a scanned report is lawful; we have found no Tennessee law requiring any particular format.
Help fill this in
Where a year is thin, it is usually because nobody has read that county’s report yet. A neighbor who types the numbers in and links the page they came from closes the gap for everyone.
