They gerrymandered Nashville a couple of years ago breaking 160 years of"tradition" because the state of Tennessee could not stand having a blue state capital.
And it’s not like the blue voters in Nashville could turn this state purple even… But the elected officials in the capital were so petty they just could not let it be blue
Nothing like making sure whole swaths of your population isn’t represented by their elected officials
In a surprise to fucking nobody. The only way the GQP can cling to power is ratfucking the system in their favor.

Didn’t Tennessee also expel 5 representatives because of reasons who then won their own special elections?
Three. But yes they did. There’s some really major bullshit going on in the state house of Tennessee.
That’s the only way they got their power in the first place.
