  "summary": "Tennessee state Rep. Johnny Garrett has won the Republican primary for the U.S. House seat being vacated by Rep. John Rose. According to The Hill, Garrett, who describes himself as a \"Trump Conservative,\" will face Democratic nominee Mike Croley, a former park ranger, in the November election.\n\nThe primary win comes as another Tennessee Republican, Sen. Marsha Blackburn, was projected to win her own primary for governor, according to CBS News. Blackburn will face Democratic nominee Jerri Green in the November election.\n\nIn the governor's primary, Blackburn led Rose 43.8% to 32.6% with about two-thirds of ballots counted, CBS News reported. Rose had pumped $13 million of his own money into the governor's race. Blackburn raised $10.8 million.",
