田纳西州保守派激进代表、参议员玛莎·布莱克本正打算将自己的工作地点从华盛顿特区迁至纳什维尔。
这位曾长期担任众议员、连任两届参议员的政客凭借定期亮相有线电视新闻节目拥有广泛的全国知名度，被认为是周四共和党州长初选中的领跑者，该选举旨在接替任期受限的共和党州长比尔·李。
在这个倾向共和党的东南部州举行州和联邦公职提名竞选之际，田纳西州州长共和党党内对决成为最受关注的赛事——该州二十年来从未有民主党人赢得州长选举。

布莱克本的竞选对手包括连任四届的众议员约翰·罗斯——和布莱克本一样，他也是国会山坚定支持特朗普总统的人士，以及州众议员蒙蒂·弗里茨。
尽管特朗普在本届选举周期的其他共和党州长初选中公开背书，但他在田纳西州的这场竞选中保持中立。
“遗憾的是，她要竞选州长了。她要竞选田纳西州州长。我真的不希望她这么做，我曾恳求她，”特朗普在一月份说道。“我当时说，‘玛莎，别这么做。我们不想失去你在参议院的席位。’”
但这位总统也表示，布莱克本会成为一名优秀州长，同时也指出罗斯一直是他的坚定忠实支持者。
尽管未能获得特朗普的背书，布莱克本还是展现了对特朗普的支持。
“随着特朗普总统将权力和职权下放给各州，我已经准备好为‘志愿之州’（田纳西州别称）的民众履职，让我们州成为美国的保守派领袖，”她在初选前夜在社交媒体上发帖称，该帖附带了一张她与特朗普的合影。
包括孟菲斯市议员杰里·格林在内的五名民主党人正在角逐本党州长提名。

田纳西州的另一位共和党参议员比尔·哈格蒂在共和党初选中没有对手，他正寻求连任六年的参议院第二个任期。
共有五名民主党人角逐该席位，将在大选中挑战哈格蒂。上一次民主党人在田纳西州赢得参议院选举还要追溯到36年前，当时的参议员阿尔·戈尔成功连任。
在众议院选举中，孟菲斯选民将根据共和党重新绘制的国会选区地图投票选出两党候选人，新地图新增了一个倾向共和党的席位，并迫使长期担任民主党议员的史蒂夫·科恩不再寻求连任。

与此同时，连任两届的共和党众议员安迪·奥格尔斯是众议院特朗普的重要盟友，获得了总统的背书，他正面临来自田纳西州农业专员查理·哈彻的激烈初选挑战——哈彻于本周早些时候获得了李州长的背书。这场竞选已经迎来了外部团体的大量资金投入。

Primary showdown: Conservative firebrand Marsha Blackburn eyes governor’s office in Tennessee
August 6, 2026 6:00am EDT / Fox News
The two-term senator faces Rep John Rose and state Rep Monty Fritts in Tuesday’s race to succeed Gov Bill Lee
By Paul Steinhauser Fox News
Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., analyzes the Democratic strategy to limit President Donald Trump’s war powers regarding Iran, calling it a ‘delay tactic.’ She emphasizes confronting Iran’s nuclear ambitions and its role in funding terrorist groups like Hamas. Blackburn also criticizes a Michigan Senate candidate for his anti-Israel comments.

Conservative firebrand Sen. Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee is aiming to change her work address from Washington D.C., to Nashville.
The former longtime congresswoman and two-term senator with a robust national profile thanks to her regular cable news appearances is considered the front-runner in Thursday’s Republican gubernatorial primary, in the race to succeed term-limited GOP Gov. Bill Lee.
The Republican face-off for governor of Tennessee, where Democrats haven’t won a gubernatorial election in two decades, takes top billing as the red-leaning southeastern state holds nominating contests for state and federal offices.

Blackburn is running in a race that also includes four-term Rep. John Rose, who like Blackburn is a staunch Capitol Hill supporter of President Donald Trump, and state Rep. Monty Fritts.
Even though the president handed out endorsements in other GOP gubernatorial primaries this cycle, Trump remained neutral in the Tennessee contest.
“Unfortunately, she’s running for governor. She’s running for governor of Tennessee. I’d love her not to, I begged her,” Trump said in January. “‘I said, ‘Marsha, don’t. We don’t want to lose you in the Senate.’”
But the president has said Blackburn would be a good governor, and also noted that Rose has been a staunch loyalist.
Even though she didn’t land Trump’s endorsement, Blackburn has showcased her support for him.
“As President Trump sends power and authority back to the states, I’m ready to deliver for the people of the Volunteer State and make our state America’s conservative leader,” she wrote on the eve of the primary in a social media post that included a photo of her and Trump.
Five Democrats, including Memphis City Councilwoman Jerri Green, are bidding for their party’s gubernatorial nomination.

Tennessee’s other U.S. senator, Republican Bill Hagerty, is unopposed in the GOP primary as he seeks a second six-year term in the Senate.
Five Democrats are vying to challenge Hagerty in the general election. Then-Sen. Al Gore’s re-election 36 years ago was the last time a Democrat won a Senate contest in Tennessee.
In U.S. House battles, Memphis voters will cast ballots for their Democratic and Republican nominees using a new GOP-drawn congressional district map that created an extra right-leaning seat and forced longtime Democratic Rep. Steve Cohen to not seek re-election.

Meanwhile, two-term Republican Rep. Andy Ogles, a major Trump ally in the House who is backed by the president, is facing a stiff primary challenge from Tennessee Agriculture Commissioner Charlie Hatcher, who was endorsed earlier this week by Lee. The race has seen a large infusion of money from outside groups.
