Office of the Tennessee Secretary of State

The Tennessee Department of State is the most unique and functionally diverse department in state government. The department has oversight of a wide range of services including elections, the state library and archives, administrative law judges, business filings, and charitable filings and investigations, to name a few. The services touch every department in state government, every state employee, business, and most citizen in the state.

Our mission is to exceed the expectations of our customers, the taxpayers, by operating at the highest levels of accuracy, cost-effectiveness and accountability in a customer-centered environment.

All these things placed in practice have earned the department the Tennessean’s Top Workplace designation two years in a row (2019 and 2020).
