Tennessee

Outlook: Solid Republican

11 Electoral Votes (11 in 2000)
Bush won in 2004 by 14.27%

Tennessee is politically a mixed state, having more Democratic members in Congress than Republican, as well as a Democratic governor and state House. Both of its senators are Republicans, however, and the state Senate is controlled by the GOP. Bill Clinton won the state back in 1996, but since 2000 it has grown increasingly Republican in national elections, going to George W. Bush by three points that year and by 14 in 2004.
