The main special election yesterday was the U.S. House race in Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District, and Republican Matt Van Epps won that contest.

Tennessee House race

Matt Van Epps, a Republican and former state official, won the special election to fill the vacant U.S. House seat in Tennessee’s 7th District, defeating Democrat Aftyn Behn. His victory allows Republicans to retain the seat previously held by Mark Green and slightly bolsters their narrow House majority.

If you meant another race

There can sometimes be local or state-level special elections on the same day in different places. If you had a different state, district, or office in mind (for example, a city council or state legislative seat), share the location and office and the specific winner can be identified for that race.
