Lonnie Spivak Endorses Senator Marsha Blackburn for Governor of Tennessee

Senator Marsha Blackburn and Lonnie Spivak

It is with great pride and unwavering conviction that I write to endorse Senator Marsha Blackburn for Governor of Tennessee. For many years and as the former Chairman of the GOP Nashville, I have had the privilege of observing and working alongside many dedicated public servants, but few have demonstrated the steadfast leadership, principled resolve, and genuine commitment to Tennessee values that Senator Blackburn brings to the table.

Marsha Blackburn has spent her career fighting for the people of our great state—first as a state senator, where she fiercely opposed a state income tax, safeguarding Tennesseans from unnecessary burdens. Then in the U.S. House of Representatives, and most recently as our voice in the United States Senate. Throughout her tenure, she has consistently championed the issues that matter most to Tennesseans: protecting our freedoms, supporting our small businesses, securing our borders, and preserving the conservative principles that make Tennessee a beacon of opportunity and prosperity.

What sets Marsha apart is not just her record, but her character. She is a tireless advocate who listens to her constituents and acts decisively on their behalf. I’ve seen firsthand how she stands firm against the pressures of Washington elites and never wavers in her defense of our Second Amendment rights, our economic vitality, and our way of life. Tennessee needs a governor who will carry that same tenacity and integrity into the statehouse, and Marsha Blackburn is that leader.

As Governor, I am confident that Marsha will continue to prioritize the needs of everyday Tennesseans—ensuring our schools prepare our children for success, our communities remain safe, and our economy thrives for generations to come. Her proven ability to deliver results, coupled with her deep understanding of our state’s unique challenges and opportunities, makes her the clear choice to lead Tennessee into a bold and prosperous future.

I urge my fellow Tennesseans who value strong, principled leadership to join me in supporting Senator Marsha Blackburn for Governor. Together, we can build on the foundation of excellence that defines our state and ensure Tennessee remains the best state in the union, and a place we’re proud to call home.
