Congressman Scott DesJarlais Declares Victory in Primary Election

Pittsburg, TN -­­ Congressman Scott DesJarlais, MD declared victory in the race for Tennessee’s Fourth Congressional District.

"I am truly honored that the folks of the Fourth Congressional District put their faith in my ability to continue to serve them effectively in Washington. My campaign made it clear from the beginning we would run on my independent, conservative record and that is precisely what we did. While my opponent engaged in desperate and disgusting personal attacks, at the end of the day voters cared more about the job I have done in Congress. I want to thank Steve Lane and John Anderson for their endorsement and I look forward to focusing on the general election in November."
