My Nashville Theory

 Final results on District 7 results in Tenn?  

Matt Van Epps, Republican, won with 96,988 votes (around 54.4-percent).

Aftyn Behn, Democrat, lost with roughly80,000 (45.1-percent).

The trouble in selling Behn? She became this oddball far-left character...who bluntly said...of Nashville and all of its character....she hated it.  In some way....she wanted to 'Californiaize' the city.

I asked Grok....how many Californians had relocated to the Nashville area (Greater-Nashville)....he responded around 100,000 since 2020. 

So I asked Grok....from data out there...is there a ratio of Republicans to Democrats....who moved into Nashville?  YES....5-to-1 Republicans over Dems.   So out of 100k....somewhere around 85k were leaning conservative-or-Republican.

This begs the question....so how did the radical Behn get pushed-up as a candidate?

I went back to view results since 2000 in District 7.  Oddly....Republicans typically always win....with the Democratic candidate usually always getting 80k-plus votes. Pratt (D) in 2024...did get 115k votes (still finishing 2nd place).

Yet...Behn...with all this extra funding/attention....still basically carved out the traditional end-result....35 to 45 percent of the local vote.

BS national attention?  Yeah.....the suggestion that Californians who moved in...threatened the 'character' of Nashville? Out of the 100k....there are probably 15,000 softcore/hardcore lefties in the mix, and determined to persuade 'change'. Well...it's not really working.

The only way to fix this....so Nashville is overwhelmingly left/far-left?  Haitians....you need 30,000 Haitians to be settled into Nashville.
