Tennessee’s primary elections produced three notable results with implications for November’s midterm contests.

– Republican Representative Andy Ogles lost his primary to former state Agriculture Commissioner Charlie Hatcher despite President Trump’s endorsement, an uncommon defeat for a Trump-backed congressional incumbent.
– Senator Marsha Blackburn won the Republican nomination for governor, while Democrat Jerri Green secured her party’s nomination; their November contest guarantees Tennessee will elect its first woman governor.
– In the newly redrawn Memphis-area 9th District, Republican Brent Taylor will face Democrat Justin Pearson, setting up a contest shaped by the state’s revised congressional map.
