It might be easier for someone with a membership to figure out?

Wow, that's really something.  I would bet that East Tennessee is probably as Republican as anywhere and Middle Tennessee looks like Alabama, then?

A combined East and Middle TN would then be:

Romney: 1,168,569 (63.5%)
Obama: 641,645 (34.9%)

It's a PVI of R+16 or R+17, but not quite as extreme as I would have guessed, since West TN is such a small slice of the population.

Just to chime in... since I lived in TN for a while it would be interesting to do as some suggested to me: Let Memphis/Shelby County cede to Mississippi.  I wonder if it would make TN the most heavily red/atlas-blue state and flip Mississippi.

We calculated that somewhere, and giving TN-09 to Mississippi (the TN-08 section of Shelby County is actually GOP-leaning), Romney would have won New Mississippi narrowly, probably pending a recount.  ElectionsGuy calculated that the difference would have been a mere 790 votes!!  He would have won New Tennessee by 30, which would have been good for his 5th largest win, behind Utah, Wyoming, Oklahoma, and Idaho.  I would bet, though, that New Tennessee would be neck-and-neck with Oklahoma and West Virginia for Trump's biggest margin this year, while New Mississippi would be voting for Clinton.
