Democrat Aftyn Behn and Republican Matt Van Epps are running neck and neck in the Dec. 2 special election for Tennessee’s Seventh Congressional District seat, according to a new poll released on Nov 26.

An Emerson College Polling/The Hill survey shows 48 percent of voters support Epps and 46 percent support Behn to succeed Rep. Mark Green (R-Tenn.) after he retired to take a job in the private sector.  The district has been represented by Republicans since 1983.
