Jenny  Fowler
Candidate for TN State House District 19 (Democratic Primary) Knox, TN 2026-08-06

Jenny Fowler is a Democratic candidate running for election to the Tennessee House of Representatives to represent District 19 [1]. She appears on the ballot for the Democratic primary scheduled for August 6, 2026 [1]. The general election for this seat is set for November 3, 2026 [1].

Fowler describes herself as a retired educator from the University of Tennessee (UT) [14]. Her campaign website identifies her as a "level-headed leader" who advocates for fully funded public education, improvements to roads and infrastructure to preserve rural areas, and quality, affordable healthcare for residents of East Knox County [14]. She states that she is committed to being an effective listener and communicator, aiming to represent the voices of her community in Nashville [14].

Fowler’s platform emphasizes working hard to promote the interests of the district's rural population, which includes working families, family farmers, small businesses, educators, and frontline workers [14]. The campaign slogan used on her website is "People Over Politics | Common Sense for Common People" [14]. District 19 covers rural areas extending from the Norris Freeway in the north, through Gibbs and Carter in the east, and south to Seymour [14]. Voters are directed to check their addresses on Knox County’s map to confirm they reside in this district [14].

It is important to distinguish this candidate from other individuals with the same name. Ballotpedia sources do not provide biographical details for Fowler beyond her candidacy, and she has not yet completed the Ballotpedia Candidate Connection survey for the 2026 election [1]. Another individual named Jenny Fowler was a women's soccer player at Bowling Green State University in 2013, but this appears to be a different person with no stated connection to Tennessee politics [20].

As of the available sources, campaign finance information for Fowler is not yet available from OpenSecrets [1]. The incumbent for District 19 in the Republican primary is Dave Wright [1].
