With the recent resignation of County School Board member Brent Parsley and a newly opened Constable seat, four seats will now be contested by caucus. Six of the county's nine districts are impacted.
The Coffee County Republican Party will conduct a caucus on September 5, 2024, to select candidates for Coffee County Commission Districts 2 and 6, Coffee County School Board Seat 2 (Districts 2-6-7), and County Constable Seat 1 (Districts 1-3-4) for the November 5, 2024, General Election ballot. These seats are open because of the resignations of Commissioner Dennis Hunt, Commissioner Joey Hobbs, School Board member Brent Parsley, and Constable William Carden. The caucus will be held at the Coffee County Administrative Plaza Community Room at 1327 McArthur Street, Manchester. Registration of voters begins at 5:00 pm, with the caucus starting at 6:00 pm. Those desiring to register and vote in the caucus must bring identification (driver’s license or voter registration card) for review by a Contest and Credentials Committee. Only “bona fide Republicans,” as defined by the Bylaws of the Tennessee Republican Party (“Bylaws”), are allowed to participate and vote in the caucus. Pursuant to Article IX, Section 1(A)(1) of the Bylaws, a “bona fide Republican” is an individual “… who has voted in at least three (3) of the four (4) most recent statewide Republican primary elections…” Republicans who were not of legal age and unable to vote in three of the last four primary elections can obtain approval to participate from a State Executive Committee member the night of the caucus. For further questions or information, call the Coffee County Republican Party Chairman at 931-273-8955.
