WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican Rep. Mark Green won reelection to a U.S. House seat representing Tennessee on Tuesday.
Green has served as the state's 7th District representative since 2019.
Green defeated former Democratic Nashville Mayor Megan Barry and independent Shaun Greene. Earlier this year, Green announced he would not seek reelection but surprisingly reversed course after he said he received "countless calls" asking him to reconsider.
Green previously served as an Army surgeon and in the state Senate and is from Montgomery County. He is the chairman of the Committee on Homeland Security.
