Gordon is in big big trouble. Rutherford and Sumner Counties are becoming deeper Republican than ever before.
He’s in trouble on paper, but we still have no first-tier candidates stepping up. You can’t beat him with second or third tier challengers with no money. He’s also a House Committee Chairman (Science & Technology), and they can raise beaucoup $$. He’s not received less than 62% of the vote since 1998, and last November (for the first time in his Congressional career), he had NO GOP opponent, just an Independent, and he won 74-26%.
