The race is on for the Tennessee House of Representatives District 80 with Andrea Bond Johnson (D) and Julian McTizic (R) vying for the seat, which has been held by Representative Johnny Shaw for 26 years. Both candidates have planned events in Hardeman County this month to meet constituents, share their values, as well as their goals if they are elected into office. This is a pivotal race with although experienced candidates, who have “big shoes” to fill.
