Congressional Redistricting

For nearly two decades, Tennessee's 9th Congressional District provided critical federal representation for Memphis and Shelby County. However, the recent redistricting effectively erased this boundary, carving up the nation's largest city with a Black majority population and distributing its voters across neighboring, predominantly conservative districts. Davidson County was also completely redrawn during the May 2026 special legislative session. The 5th Congressional District has been moved entirely out of Davidson County. Instead, the city is now divided among the 4th, 6th, and 7th Congressional Districts.
