Stephen Fincher, the conservative Republican candidate for Congress in the Eighth District, will kick off his campaign with a three day, 19 county bus tour from the Mississsippi River to Middle Tennessee. The sprawling Eighth District is currently represented by Congressman John Tanner, and many analysts cite Fincher as the reason for Tanner's retirement.
Stephen Fincher is a 37-year old farmer, businessman and member of a family gospel singing ministry. Stephen and his wife of 18 years, Lynn, live in the Frog Jump community near Halls and are active in Archer's Chapel Methodist Church.
"As we've been campaigning in every corner of the Eighth District, the voters keep telling me that they want a Congressman who will listen. That's what this 19 county tour is about," said Fincher. "I want to hear the thoughts and concerns of everyday Tennesseans and share my message about the need to stop the Obama-Pelosi agenda."
