I wanted to make sure that you were aware of last night's results in the special election to fill the vacant State House District 62 seat. I'm very pleased to inform you that our Republican candidate Pat Marsh prevailed over Democrat Ty Cobb whose brother Curt Cobb vacated the seat over the summer to take a different government job. Despite the seat being held by Democrats for generations, Marsh defeated Cobb by a significant margin of 56 to 41 percent.

Democrats attempted to run their candidate as a Republican to gain support from voters because they know that Tennesseans are fed up with liberal policies being pushed at all levels of government. Pat stood on his principles of limited government, lower taxes and a strong free enterprise system and voters chose to send him, a true conservative, to Nashville.

Pat ran a powerful campaign, but his success would not have been possible without support from you. Whether it was making phone calls, knocking on doors or making a donation, your efforts were a large part of what made this election so successful. I want to take this opportunity to say thank you for everything that you have done to help the Tennessee Republican Party and urge you to continue your support so that we can keep electing Republican candidates at all levels of government.

Sincerely,

Chris Devaney
Chairman

I forget, was it the state House or Senate that had the very slim majority? If it's the House, then this should help a bit more.

The house had a 1 vote majority. Now if we can remove the buffoon that is speaker (who got the job because of a Judas kiss) we will have taken back the state house.

The Speaker has done right by gun owners in this state despite the sneaky way he got the position. Just my opinion....
