  • November 12, 2020 to All Tennesseans, the Tennessee
    November 12, 2020 To all Tennesseans, The Tennessee House Republican Caucus unequivocally and staunchly stands with President of the United States Donald J. Trump in demanding that all legal ballots, and only legal ballots, be counted in the 2020 presidential election. Voting is one of the most fundamental pieces of our American republic. One person equals one vote in a system that grants justice and equality for all in deciding our government. In an election where there are alleged examples of voter fraud and malpractice, Tennessee Republicans stand with the rule of law. We shall not accept the idea that the national media or the political elite have the official say on the winner of any election, let alone the presidency. It is up to the official systems put in place by the constitution and by the people. When there are alleged software glitches, lost or destroyed ballots, and questionable practices implemented in some areas of the country, litigation must have a day in court to decide the outcome of this election process. We uphold the idea of protecting the rights of all Americans, liberal or conservative, to have their voices heard. After all legal ballots are counted and any illegal ballots are removed, we support confirming the victor. A peaceful transition to the next term, whether it be the incumbent or the challenger, is paramount to our system of government. We stand with all Tennesseans in defending the integrity of elections. We are asking for the election process to have the ability to finish before prematurely declaring a winner.

  • Tennessee 2020 General Election Results Tennessee Chamber of Commerce & Industry’S Morning After Report: 2020 General Election Results
    Special Report Tennessee 2020 General Election Results Tennessee Chamber of Commerce & Industry’s Morning after Report: 2020 General Election Results NOTE: All results are unofficial due to increased turnout and mail-in voting. Republicans Win Resounding Victories with Substantial Margins in Presidential, U.S. Senate, U.S. House and State House and State Senate Victories. President Donald Trump Wins Tennessee Decisively- Tennessee was one of the first states that news networks called as a win for President Donald Trump. Overall, President Trump’s performance in the Volunteer State compared to 2016 was at a similar margin at 61%. In 2016, President Trump won Tennessee with approximately 61% of the total vote compared to 35% for Hillary Clinton. For many, this was largely predicted, as rural areas countered increased urban turnout to give President Trump a strong victory. Democrat Presidential candidate Joe Biden carried resoundingly the urban counties of Davidson, Shelby and rural Haywood County by margins of up to 65%. President Trump carried all other 92 counties with a substantial margin of victory in most counties exceeding 70%, the highest in Wayne County where he received almost 87% of the vote. Voting Comparisons: In record setting fashion and similar to a number of other states, overall 2020 voter turnout in Tennessee was higher than any other. Dating back to 2008, when Barack Obama first ran for President, Tennessee’s total general election turnout was 2,601,987. In 2012, turnout dropped slightly to 2.458,577. In 2016, when President Donald Trump first ran for office, overall turnout was 2,508,027.
