Senate 17: Givens Up Again

Of the seventeen Tennessee Senate seats up for election in 2010, only a couple so far are known to be open seats. One of these is in District 17, where Sen. Mae Beavers is stepping down to run for Wilson County Mayor.

In 2006, the Democratic nominee had formerly held the position. Bob Rochelle did not make it back this time, unless something changes. But Rochelle's primary opponent, Aubrey Givens, is going for the nod.

As so often happens, a House member is aiming for the upper chamber. District 57 Rep. Susan Lynn, a Republican from Mt. Juliet, is hoping to add her conservative voice to the Senate.

Rep. Lynn's primary opponent is A.J. McCall, who heads up a family furniture business at D.T. McCall's. Sadly, there's no mention of C.W. McCall. Now that would make for an interesting race. Come in, Rubber Duck.
