District 26 in play?

Tennessee Democrats are making a last-minute run at District 26 state Rep. Greg Martin, R-Hixson, who is running for his second full term in the state legislature.

Individuals and political action committees (PACs) have given Democratic challenger Allison Gorman $134,862.20 this year in her second effort to unseat the incumbent.

That amount includes $40,863 in the most recent pre-general election campaign financial disclosure form filed with the state of Tennessee. Of that $40,863, two contributions of the maximum of $14,400 came from the Building Our Base PAC and the Invictus PAC, both of Nashville.
