NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Tennessee has spoken at the ballot box this election cycle for its Congressional seats — including one U.S.
Senate seat and all nine U.S. House seats across the state.
For this election, we are using Decision Desk HQ to call these races. It launched as an independent provider of election results, race calls and data in 2012. It was the first provider to call the presidency for former President Donald Trump in 2016 and for President Joe Biden in 2020.
In 2022, DDHQ says it projected the U.S. Senate, House and governor races with 100% accuracy, beating The Associated Press' race calls 71% of the time.
Here are how the races are looking so far in Tennessee. Tennessee U.S.
Senate Sen. Marsha Blackburn is on track to win her second term to the U.S.
Senate. Blackburn faced Democratic opponent state Rep. Gloria Johnson, D-Knoxville.
She took on the open seat in 2018, moving to a more senior role in her Congressional political chapter. She was previously the House Congressional District 7 representative. Since her time in the U.
S. Senate, two bills she sponsored became law. Her biggest bill was the REPORT Act, which changed the federal framework for reporting crimes involving online sexual exploitation of children.
Her other bill was to rename a courthouse in Jackson, Tennessee, in honor of James D. Todd. Even though Johnson lost the Congressional seat, she will remain in the Tennessee General Assembly.
She ran unopposed on the state house ballot for her.
