共和党人Matt Van Epps以53.9%赢下田纳西州第七选区特别选举，保住众议院席位

2025年12月2日，美国田纳西州举行联邦众议院第七选区特别选举，共和党候选人Matt Van Epps以97,034票、53.9%的得票率击败民主党候选人Aftyn Behn的81,109票、45.1%，保住了共和党的这一众议院席位。田纳西州州务卿公布的结果显示，本次选举共投出180,012票，另有四名独立候选人分享其余选票。

这一席位自今年7月20日起空缺：原任众议员Mark Green辞职转入私营部门。两党初选于10月7日举行，Van Epps与Behn分别胜出。第七选区横跨田纳西州中部14个县，包括州府Nashville所在的Davidson县的一部分、Williamson县的一部分，以及包括Clarksville在内的Montgomery县等地。

Van Epps是陆军退伍军人，曾任直升机飞行员，2024年至2025年任田纳西州总务厅厅长，竞选得到特朗普总统背书。Behn是代表Nashville的州众议员。这一选区2024年由特朗普以约22个百分点的优势拿下，Green同年以约21个百分点连任；本次约8.8个百分点的胜差明显收窄，投票率约38%，接近2022年中期选举水平。Van Epps当选后，共和党在联邦众议院的席位将增至220席，民主党为213席。

Republican Matt Van Epps Wins Tennessee's 7th District Special Election With 53.9 Percent, Holding the House Seat

On December 2, 2025, Tennessee held a special election for the state's 7th Congressional District, and Republican Matt Van Epps defeated Democratic nominee Aftyn Behn with 97,034 votes, 53.9 percent, to Behn's 81,109 votes, 45.1 percent, holding the U.S. House seat for his party. Results published by the Tennessee Secretary of State showed 180,012 total votes cast, with four independent candidates sharing the remainder.

The seat had been vacant since July 20, when Representative Mark Green resigned to take a private-sector job. In the October 7 primaries, Van Epps and Behn won their parties' nominations. The 7th District spans 14 counties in Middle Tennessee, including part of Davidson County, home to the state capital, Nashville, part of Williamson County, and Montgomery County, which includes Clarksville.

Van Epps, an Army veteran and former helicopter pilot, served as commissioner of the Tennessee Department of General Services from 2024 to 2025 and was endorsed by President Donald J. Trump. Behn is a state representative from Nashville. President Trump carried the district by about 22 points in 2024 and Green won reelection that year by about 21 points, making Van Epps's margin of about 8.8 points a marked narrowing; turnout was about 38 percent, close to the district's 2022 midterm level. With Van Epps's win, the Republican majority in the U.S. House grows to 220 seats against 213 for the Democrats once he is sworn in.
