The latest print edition of The Tennessee Journal is out. Here is what’s in it:

— Blood in the water: More punitive measures follow law halving the size of Nashville council.

— No harm, no foul? Judges mull motions for summary judgment in re-districting challenge.

Also: Dwight Tarwater’s state Supreme Court nomination confirmed, residency requirement questions cloud Memphis mayor’s race, new Knox County GOP chair pledges “return to normalcy,” and is there an emoji for succession jockeying for the Senate speakership?
