The district had been represented by Democrat Marilyn Lloyd, who had served since 1975. Marilyn Lloyd performed best in a number of the district’s smaller and more rural counties.

He posted his largest raw vote and margin in Hamilton County, home to Chattanooga, and also carried Bradley County and Bledsoe County. Despite those wins, Wamp’s margins were not large enough to overcome Lloyd’s advantage in the district’s rural and exurban areas.1992 Election Results for Tennessee -- RightDataUSA.com https://rightdatausa.com/election_results?y=1992&t=H&r=N&s=TN&d=03&WhichMap=vs 2026-02-11 rightdatausa.com Democratic primary Democratic primary results Democratic Party (United States) Marilyn Lloyd (incumbent) 29,895 81.08% Democratic Party (United States) David Stacy 6,974 18.92% 36,869 100.00% Republican primary Republican primary results Republican Party (United States) Zach Wamp 18,506 77.23% Republican Party (United States) Todd Gardenhire 2,792 11.65% Republican Party (United States) Wayne Watson 2,665 11.12% 23,963 100.00% Results Tennessee's 3rd congressional district election, 1992 Democratic Party (United States) Marilyn Lloyd (inc.) 105,693 48.81% Republican Party (United States) Zach Wamp 102,763 47.46% Independent (politician) Carol Hagan 4,433 2.05% Independent (politician) Pete Melcher 2,048 0.95% Independent (politician) Marjorie M.

It had been represented by Democrat Bart Gordon since 1985. Bart Gordon won every rural county in the district and ran up particularly large margins in the Upper Cumberland, including Clay, DeKalb, Jackson, Overton, Smith, and Trousdale. He also carried Cannon, Macon, Marshall, Putnam, Rutherford, and Sumner. The Republican challenger was Marsha Blackburn, who would later become a future Congresswoman representing Tennessee's 7th congressional district. She performed best in the district’s suburban areas, and won the Williamson County–which was her home county–and also carried the suburban precincts in the district’s share of Davidson County. Those margins, however, did not come close to Gordon’s strength in the district’s rural and exurban areas.Baker, Jackson, Marsha Blackburn – Beacon of the Right https://web.archive.org/web/20131210211025/http://www.memphismagazine.com/July-2011/Marsha-Blackburn/ December 10, 2013, Memphis Magazine, July 2011; retrieved December 6, 2013.1992 Election Results for Tennessee -- RightDataUSA.com https://rightdatausa.com/election_results?y=1992&t=H&r=N&s=TN&d=06&WhichMap=vs 2026-02-12 rightdatausa.com Democratic primary Democratic primary results Democratic Party (United States) Bart Gordon 45,576 83.07% Democratic Party (United States) Bob Ries 4,912 8.95% Democratic Party (United States) Don Schneller 4,371 7.97% Democratic Party (United States) Other 7 0.01% 54,866 100.00% Republican primary Republican primary results Republican Party (United States) Marsha Blackburn 8,471 50.65% Republican Party (United States) Jeff Whitesides 3,964 23.70% Republican Party (United States) Robert Baker 1,794 10.73% Republican Party (United States) Porter Stark 883 5.28% Republican Party (United States) Gregory Cochran 677 4.05% Republican Party (United States) William Rainey 468 2.80% Republican Party (United States) David Schwab 460 2.75% Republican Party (United States) Other 6 0.04% 16,723 100.00% Results Tennessee's 6th congressional district election, 1992 Democratic Party (United States) Bart Gordon (inc.) 120,177 56.57% Republican Party (United States) Marsha Blackburn 86,289 40.62% Independent (politician) H.
