Quick Glance: Fall Matchup Set between 'Tennessee Three' Democrat Gloria Johnson and GOP US Sen. Marsha Blackburn
- Republican U.S. Sen. Marsha Blackburn, a key ally of former President Donald Trump, will face off this fall in Tennessee against Democratic state Rep. Gloria Johnson, whose national profile rose when her GOP colleagues tried to oust her over a gun control protest on the chamber floor.
- Both Blackburn and Johnson successfully fended off their primary challenges on Thursday, setting up a markedly different general election than Blackburn faced when she first won her office in 2018 while in the U.S. House.
- Johnson has been critical of Blackburn's policy positions, arguing that most Tennesseans want 'common sense gun legislation' and better access to reproductive care, while Blackburn has opposed gun control measures and dodged questions about supporting a national ban on abortion.
- In a fierce battle for the congressional elections in the 5th District, Republican incumbent Andy Ogles defeated a well-funded opponent, Nashville council member Courtney Johnston, and will face Democrat Maryam Abolfazli in the fall, who ran unopposed in her party's primary.
