Tennessee Presidential Forecast safe gop

Last Updated: Thursday, July 18 at 10:39 AM EDT

Our model currently predicts that Donald Trump has a >99% chance of winning Tennessee.

A Southern state entirely within the Bible Belt, Tennessee has not awarded its electoral votes to a Democrat since Bill Clinton of neighboring Arkansas, who shared the ticket with the state's "favorite son" Al Gore, won in 1996. It has not been contested at the presidential level since 2000, when Gore narrowly lost his home state by less than 4 points. Tennessee is expected to go safely for the GOP candidate in 2024, as it did for Trump by 23% in 2020.
