Republican Matt Van Epps, who won the December 2025 special election for Tennessee’s 7th congressional district by roughly nine points after defeating Democrat Aftyn Behn, holds the seat as incumbent ahead of the November 2026 general election. The district’s partisan lean, reflected in Donald Trump’s 22-point margin there in 2024, continues to favor Republicans, with Cook Political Report rating the race Likely or Solid Republican. Van Epps secured the GOP nomination without primary opposition following the August 6, 2026, contest. Democratic candidates, including Darden Copeland, face structural headwinds in a district that has delivered consistent Republican margins of 20 points or more in recent cycles. Trader consensus at 87% for the Republican nominee and 11% for the Democratic nominee aligns with the seat’s established voting patterns and limited recent polling shifts.
