Election Results

With the 2026 midterm election season coming to a close, the Tennessee AFL-CIO congratulates all candidates elected to represent their communities and extends a special congratulations to our endorsed candidates who secured victories on November 3rd.
We recognize the hard work, dedication, and commitment to public service it takes to run for office, and we are proud of the candidates who earned the support of voters across Tennessee.

This election also marked an important milestone for labor representation in Tennessee. Allie Phillips, a proud union member of OPEIU Local 182, was the only union candidate running for the Tennessee General Assembly in the 2026 election. Her victory in House District 75 represents an important step forward in bringing the voices and experiences of working people directly into the legislature. As a former working-class organizer and union member, Phillips will bring a firsthand understanding of the issues facing Tennessee's working families to the State Capitol.
We also recognize and congratulate our endorsed candidates who earned re-election and will continue serving their communities in the Tennessee General Assembly.
