The 2024 United States Senate election in Tennessee will be held on November 5, 2024, to elect a member of the United States Senate to represent the state of Tennessee. Incumbent one-term Republican Senator Marsha Blackburn will face off against state representative Gloria Johnson. This is the first all-woman general election for a Tennessee senate seat. [1]
The primaries took place on August 1, 2024, with Blackburn and Johnson winning their respective party nominations.
Although Gloria Johnson is campaigning for the Senate seat, she is simultaneously seeking re-election to the State House in the 90th district, running unopposed in that race. [2]
At the federal and state levels, Tennessee is considered to be a strongly red state, having gone to Donald Trump by 23 points in the 2020 presidential election. In Tennessee, Republicans occupy both Senate seats, 8 out of 9 U.S. House seats, supermajorities in both state legislative chambers, and the governor's office.
Due to Tennessee's strong conservative bent, this race is considered a "Safe" Republican hold.
