MAGA Shocker: Aftyn Behn May Turn A Trump Stronghold Blue!

Yes, it’s Tennessee but she has a real chance!!
By Cliff Schecter — November 28, 2025

From The Blue Amp Media Substack. If we pull this off, my friends, it will be a political earthquake:

Amazing news from a new poll in Tennessee’s 7th District--really nothing short of stunning. Aftyn Behn—a Democratic state rep running in this congressional district Trump won by 22%, where GOP Rep. Mark Green routinely cruised to victory by over 20%—is now statistically tied with generic MAGA Republican Matt Van Epps.

Per The Tennessean, Behn trails by just 2 points, well within striking distance and light-years from where a Democrat “should” be in a district gerrymandered ruby red. This is the political equivalent of a Bernie Sanders reissuing his book “Fight Oligarchy” and a Koch Brother (the alive one) writing the foreword.

Watch the video and read more at the Substack to learn about this and the Trump's attempted political persecution of Sen. Mark Kelly.
