The heart of country and Christian music industry live in the Franklin area. She got destroyed there. Vanderbilt is the home of the liberal base.

>> Or was this a win that was too big to rig and the real margin not anywhere that close...

That as a contributor, plus a difference in “hunger” between the DIEd Blue Losers and the Red Side Satiated From So Much Winning.

Just my 2c

Mail in ballots and Nashville kept it close. It’s the big blue city in a red sea of a total district, problem.

It's all the Chicagoan's that moved to Nashville that are the problem.

They escaped the b.s. that was Chicago and brought their politics to Tennessee to ruin another state. Kick them all out!!

🚨🚨 BREAKING: MASSIVE VOTER FRAUD UNCOVERED in Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District Special election. DNC operatives were PAYING illegals to vote for Democrat Aftyn Behn in an operation that was being supported and funded in part by woke singer Taylor Swift. Matt Van Epps, the Republican candidate in the race, has already been projected as the winner so it was TOO BIG TO RIG. But the Democrats were up to their old tricks again and doing what they do best… Trying to STEAL this election from the patriots of Tennessee.

Are we really that divided?

Abraham Lincoln upon meeting author Harriet Beecher Stowe (Uncle Tom's Cabin): "So you're the little lady that started our great big war."

55% of Dems believe under some circumstances it is right to kill Republicans.

I want this story smashed into the ugly faces of the TV news leftists. With all their “Trump’s unfounded and disproven remarks about vote fraud in the 2020 election.”

RE: Are there any current residents of Nashville who were actually born in Tennessee?

The majority of immigrants are arriving from non-English speaking countries, as evidenced by what we find in our local schools. Within Metro Nashville Public Schools, students speak more than 100 different languages, and nearly a third (30%) speak a language other than English at home.
——Nashville.gov Metro Languages Access Report.


154 languages is the Los Angeles number. Amazing.

The district lost GOP voters in their realigning some to adjacent districts to help them. So it was not close.

Trump won that district by 22 points.
As I mentioned before, the NEW Trump voters, the people who became Republicans recently, because of Trump, are not that motivated to vote when Trump is not on the ballot.
We have a lot work to do to make sure they show up en masse next November and every election thereafter!

Let’s go and hit the streets!

“High score on crazy, low on hot. Laz?”

One must realize that Laz is very generous on the hot matrix and the crazy matrix, crazy is no barrier to Laz. Crazy is good, just short of being a murder victim.

Quote: “ Trump won this district by 22 points. Glad we won but low margin is concerning.”

Apples to oranges when comparing a Presidential election to an off year special house race.

The media glosses over that.

Still of the Left thinks an 8-10 (we don’t know final margins yet) loss is a victory, then I wish them many more such victories.

A year from now is an eternity and Trump will be getting out the vote to keep the movement alive.

Mid-terms are historically horrible for the party in power. Trump tried his best last time, but the Republicans lost 40 seats in Trump’s last midterms.

Yup—the last time an incumbent party gained House seats in an off year congressional election was 2002—and that was W just two months after 9-11.

Btw—that negative trend goes all the way back to World War II.

If we hold the Congress in 2026 it will be like holding a winning lottery ticket.
