Nov 05, 2024
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Some Tennessee voters have received a text message telling them their presidential ballot would not count, state officials said Tuesday.
Don't believe it. It's a scam, Secretary of State Tre Hargett said.
“We have been notified that some Tennessee voters have received a text message stating, ‘Your 2024 presidential election ballot has been officially removed from consideration,’” said Secretary Hargett in a statement. “This text message is nothing more than a scam, and our office has reported it to the authorities for further investigation.”
Polls remain open in Tennessee until 7 p.m.
