Warner is seeking re-election to the Tennessee House of Representatives for District 92 as a Republican candidate in the upcoming general election cycle [1][10]. He appears on the ballot for the Republican primary scheduled for August 6, 2026 [1].\n\nWarner has positioned himself as a conservative advocate, self-describing as a \"pro-Trump conservative\" with experience in growing the economy [15]. He states that he stands firmly for the Second Amendment, religious liberty, parental rights, medical freedom, and election integrity [11]. In recent political developments, Warner wore a Trump 2024 flag into the state legislature during a redistricting vote in May 2024, an action that drew protests from onlookers [9][5]. He has also publicly criticized Governor Lee\u2019s private-school voucher expansion plans, arguing that such measures do not provide real solutions for rural areas [13]. Warner maintains a campaign office and contact information through his website, where he continues to advocate for small businesses and the elimination of bureaucratic obstacles [3][4].\n\n## Background and education\n\nTodd Warner was born on June 6, 1971 [2]. He is a seventh-generation Tennessee native who was born and raised on a dairy farm in Chapel Hill, Tennessee [6][15]. Warner graduated from Forrest High School in 1989 [1][6].\n\n## Career\n\nTodd Warner was born and raised on a dairy farm in Chapel Hill, Tennessee [6]. He is a seventh-generation Tennessee native who has lived in the state his entire life [15]. Warner graduated from Forrest High School in 1989 [1].\n\nProfessionally, Warner is a dedicated row crop farmer specializing in corn and soybeans [6]. His family has farmed the land in Tennessee for over six generations [3]. He also operates as a businessman, describing himself as an advocate for small businesses who has fought against over-regulation and bureaucratic obstacles [3].\n\nWarner married his wife, Cindy, in 1991, and they have three children: Patrick, Kathleen, and Cason [6].\n\n## Office history\n\nTodd Warner was first elected to the Tennessee House of Representatives in 2020, defeating former Representative Rick Tillis to claim District 92[14]. He assumed office on November 3, 2020, succeeding Tillis[1][2]. His current term is scheduled to end on November 3, 2026[1]. In the 2022 election cycle, Warner faced a social media dispute with his former opponent Rick Tillis and also ran against Spring Hill Alderman Matt Fitterer and Jeff Ford during the Republican primary[12].\n\nWarner is currently running for re-election to represent District 92 in the Republican primary scheduled for August 6, 2026[1][10].

In 2026, he was involved in the debate over a substantial expansion of the state\u2019s private-school voucher program, where he expressed opposition to Governor Lee\u2019s approach, arguing that rural areas lack access to private schools and that the plan relied on \"backroom deals\" rather than real solutions [13].

In July 2022, Warner engaged in a social media dispute with former Representative Rick Tillis, his previous primary opponent, warning constituents about negative mailers from his opposition [12].

Footage captured by candidate Allie Phillips showed Warner walking through the Capitol with the flag over his shoulders while protesters jeered and state troopers maintained a heavy presence [9]. Warner later stated on social media that Democrats had screamed \"racist\" at him for wearing the flag, asserting that he would \"never apologize\" for standing with President Donald J. Trump [5].\n\nWarner has publicly criticized Governor Bill Lee\u2019s push for private-school voucher expansion, arguing in a Tennessee Stands op-ed that backroom deals are not a substitute for real solutions and noting the lack of private schools in many rural areas [13]. He also faced opposition from within his own party regarding plans to substantially expand the voucher program in 2026 [8].\n\n## Business interests and wealth source\n\nWarner describes himself as a seventh-generation Tennessee native who has raised his family and built his business in the state [15].
