#TN07 should pay at least double the tariffs from everyone else

Or triple

They voted for a MAGA end of last year although they all knew

@aftynbehn.bsky.social would have been a good start

#TN07 must have a lot of things wrong. They elected a MAGA who openly said he would cover the #Epstein files

She would have deserved so much better voters

I'd take a Minnesota Grandma over Elon Musk Any Day of the Week My monthly newsletter features legislative, constituent, and winter storm updates, and an opportunity to sign up for our Tennessee Legislature 101 program. Come for my jokes, stay to be radicalized!

Remember @aftynbehn.bsky.social who should have won #TN07?

Instead they send a MAGA?

Well, for now

And imagine, that’s exactly what #Tennessee #TN07 did. Just a few weeks ago, not a year….

THEY have actually deserved everything they get and more

Especially for everyone in #TN07 who voted for this just now

I hope it hits where it should hit

Tennessee is one of the top 15 or so most rural states in the U.S. Good luck drawing a +22 GOP gerrymander a la #TN07 in Illinois or New Jersey.

Yes, it’s good. But personally still deeply disappointed in #TN07 and in Nashville.

After this year and seeing that extremely incompetent and rabid candidate… I lost my Nashville that I once held in dear memory. Fringe crazies went mainstream 💔

Oh, MAGA have proven how exceptionally stupid they can be.

As long as he is hating and torturing black and brown people they will be happy

We have just seen that in #TN07 #
Ruin, war, lawlessness, pedophilia..who cares as long as I can watch brown people getting mistreated and thrown out

And here's a comparison of the 2024 Presidential numbers with this race in #TN07. Behn outperformed Harris by 20-30 pts in much of Nashville and a 42pt swing in one box downtown. Van Epps improved vs. Trump '24 in a couple of precincts in Hickman and Wayne Co's. (2/2)

Map by precinct of Tuesday's #TN07 Special Election where Matt Van Epps (R) won by an 8.8pt margin. Van Epps' rural and suburban votes held strong while State Rep. Aftyn Behn (D) closed some of the gap with an overperformance in Nashville's core. (1/2)

Sigh... there was no conspiracy theory in the special election for #TN07. What happened was we didn't get enough people on our side to vote, in part because of an early deadline to register to vote (November 3rd).

The 31,000 ballots that materialized were likely counties reporting numbers quickly.

#FL07 and #TN05 belong to the scandal-plagued GOP Reps Cory Mills and Andy Ogles, respectively.

Who knows if Mills is saved by redistricting, but Ogles should be very worried after what happened in the #TN07 special since he’s running next door against a much stronger opponent.

“Matt Van Epps will be the hero. I mean, he will be the deciding vote.”

Matt Van Epps will be the deciding vote to make health care and groceries even more unaffordable. #TN07

Republicans Are in Trouble, but Democrats Could Blow It Last night’s Tennessee special election gave both Democrats and Republicans something to worry about.

This #TN07 post-mortem gets at the ‘candidate fit’ conversation that Democrats need to have in contested primaries for tougher-but-winnable seats.

GIFT ARTICLE to read, share and consider.

Supreme Court lets Texas use gerrymandered map that could give GOP 5 more House seats The Supreme Court has cleared the way for a Texas congressional map that may help the GOP win five more U.S. House seats in the 2026 midterms. A lower court found the map is likely unconstitutional.

Obviously 2/3 of #SCOTUS is corrupt. Nearly all their rulings should be overturned later, like the #Taney court likely should've faced (maybe they did?)

One thing about heavy #gerrymander is those "likely R" districts are more tenuous. Even with #TN07 size swings, #TX #Republicans may regret this.

Every. Single. County. That’s where Democrats overperformed in the #TN07 special.

Mike Johnson— your days in the majority are numbered.

And no matter how hard the GOP tries to spin this story, every single county in #TN07 moved to the left. I just wished it had moved to the left by more than the margins shown below let alone flip more counties to blue, but that is something we can work on next time. #TN05 and #TN07 are in play IMHO.
