Redistricting

2020-2021

See also: Redistricting in Tennessee after the 2020 census

On February 6, 2022, Gov. Bill Lee (R) signed new congressional districts into law, approving a proposal passed by both chambers of the Tennessee legislature.^[11] On January 18, 2022, the Senate Judiciary Committee recommended a congressional district proposal for consideration by the full Senate in a 7-2 vote along party lines, with all Republicans supporting the proposal and all Democrats opposing it.^[12] The Senate approved proposals for congressional and Senate maps in a 26-5 party-line vote on January 20.^[13] The House approved the congressional plan in a 70-26 party-line vote on January 24.^[14] This map took effect for Tennessee's 2022 congressional elections.

On November 15, 2021, Tennessee Democrats released a congressional district map keeping major cities like Nashville whole and putting Williamson, Rutherford, and Wilson counties in the state's fourth congressional district.^[15] The House Select Committee on Redistricting released a proposal on January 12, 2022.^[16]

How does redistricting in Tennessee work? In Tennessee, both congressional and state legislative district boundaries are drawn by the state legislature. These lines are subject to veto by the governor.^[17]

The Tennessee Constitution requires that state Senate districts "preserve counties whole where possible." State statutes mandate that no more than 30 counties may be split across districts. Furthermore, state law requires that state legislative districts be contiguous. There are no such requirements in place for congressional districts.^[17]

2020

2024

2010-2011

This is the 7th Congressional District prior to the 2010 redistricting.

In 2011, the Tennessee State Legislature re-drew the congressional districts based on updated population information from the 2010 census.
