After John Prine died from complications of COVID-19, his wife has urged lawmakers to expand absentee voting for Tennesseans who want to avoid putting their health at risk in order to exercise their right to vote.

Prine had survived throat and lung cancer, continuing to record and perform despite those illnesses.

“I do not wish this pain and trauma on any other American family, especially not my fellow Tennesseans,” she added. Tennessee voters can request absentee ballots starting May 8 for the Aug. 6 primary election. Early voting starts July 17.

MillsDarryl Oh, your flag decal won’t get you into heaven anymore.... Now Jesus don’t like killing, no matter what your reason for... —— I hope you are having that vodka and ginger ale right now, John Prine! To me, your music and songs are hymns

Don't agree and don't think John would approve.

Yeah because John Prine was the perfect specimen of healthy man, he was already...if you can loot, riot, and destroy the streets I can walk to the ballot box.

If people can loot, burn, and attack people on our streets, we can get our asses out to the polls to vote. We know exactly what's happening with all this vote by mail fraud.

if you can march in street,loot,set fires,kill law enforcement,then you can go vote in person.

Many states do mail in voting with no problem. What’s taking Tennessee so long?

Ahhhh no! We will NOT open our election system up to additional FRAUD !!!!

If you can peacefully protest and/or riot and loot in person, you can vote in person.

Is the virus more deadly at the voting booth than your local Wal-Mart?

Riots ended all that, we are back to normal now

See ya in November Democrats

If it ok to go shopping and riot, it ok to go vote
