(NASHVILLE, TN), State Senator Bill Ketron (R-Murfreesboro) was recently honored with an award from the Tennessee Association of County Election Officials (TACEO) for his work on the Voter Confidence Act. Ketron received the award at the group’s annual meeting in Nashville this week.
The Association consists of county election officials statewide and is an educational forum for the exchange of ideas relative to the administration of elections. The Association offers an opportunity for members to suggest and participate in the implementation of improvements in or to Tennessee’s election laws.
“I am very honored to receive this award,” said Senator Ketron, who is Chairman of the State and Local Government Committee which hears legislation regarding Tennessee’s election laws. “I look forward to continuing to work with our election officials to increase voter participation and ensure a fair electoral process in Tennessee.”
