This was supposed to be a blow out for the Republican… Oops
Well done Behn!

This is the moment Taylor Swift should say something and endorse the democrat. She owns all of Nashville so she has sway in Tennessee.

Democrat Aftyn Behn is polling within two points of her opponent, Republican Matt Van Epps. This is less than the poll’s margin of error.
That is incredibly impressive, given that Trump won the district by 22% in 2024.

Trump won the district by 22 points, the fact that it’s even close should really start to panic republicans

Now… how to keep voter intimidation away from polls… and keep ballot counts legit.

It would be awesome to see the gerrymandering they did to Nashville backfire! Let’s go TN-7 vote Aftyn!

I’ll believe it when the election is done.

I don’t put 1 cent on a bet in Tennessee but I’m always open for a surprise…

If she gets within single digits, that should be an absolute tsunami warning for Republicans. A victory would be unthinkable.

I swear to God if yall don’t lock the fuck in, man. Y’all are supposed to be red hot blooded country Americans! Get those downright dirty scum of the Earth griftercritter Repubs out of office! USA! USA! USA! 🇺🇸

As a reminder – while this *sounds* great, Polls are becoming more and more unreliable, especially at a congressional seat level. Further a special election is all about turnout since the numbers are usually low.
I will hope, but I won’t hold my breath. Nor will I invest any emotion into it until it happens.
Now, if it is truly this close or even a Dem win – then let’s talk, especially since this MTGs seat up for grabs.

Come on Tennessee. You know what to do. End this nightmare regime

Turnout is going very low. Any GOTV effort will swing this. Dems have a huge chance to win here with how things are.

Anyone that supports a Rethuglikkkon is a traitor to the USA at this point.

If she wins Johnson will never swear her in.

Not just a democrat

As a native Tennessean, honestly surprised to see that it’s close. If she gets it, that’s gonna be a pretty damning indictment of the GOP, because TN is absolutely crimson red.

I donated even tho I’m out of state. I’d just really like her to flip this district—death knells for Trump!

Behn seems like a cool populist. Really hope she can somehow pull it out.

the Republicans really hate the Republican party, apart from Trump. maybe it wasn’t such a great idea to turn the party into a personality cult that only shows up to vote when trumps name is on the ballot. what happens when he dies?

Why is there so much hate in America by Christians? That’s who votes Republican.

Trump motivates democrats to turn out to vote and keeps republicans home

How the FUCK are people still voting republican… the party that has stripped them of their rights, their money, healthcare, Doge stole their identity, ICE are destroying their communities, Russia, Saudi, Israeli interference… yet, they still vote against their own interests. Wild.
That said, this brings me hope.

Please swing blue!

This was a +22 district. It being close likely terrifies the gop cause there aren’t many districts that are redder than that.
But dont worry, their solution to fix it is to spike everyone’s Healthcare insurance costs. That should do it.

Although I’m about 90% sure the Republican will win in a squeaker, that “squeaker” part will scare Republicans into amping up their election rigging plans a few notches.
