2026 United States House of Representatives elections in Texas
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 2026 United States House of Representatives elections in Texas will be held on November 3, 2026, to elect the thirty-eight U.S. representatives from the State of Texas, one from each of the state's thirty-eight congressional districts. The elections will coincide with other elections to the House of Representatives, elections to the United States Senate, and various state and local elections. The primary elections took place on March 3, 2026, and in races where no candidate receives over 50% in a primary, runoff elections will take place on May 26, 2026.[1]

Redistricting
On July 9, 2025, the Texas state government announced that during a planned special session on July 21 of this year, it would tackle mid-decade redistricting. This had been pushed privately by the White House to help Republicans keep control of the House in 2026, and critics have labeled it a gerrymander.[2][3]
On August 20, 2025, the Texas House passed congressional maps that would target five Democratic-held seats. The vote was 88–52, a party-line vote. The new map changes the territory of Democratic representatives Marc Veasey, Vicente Gonzalez, Lloyd Doggett, Julie Johnson, and Al Green.[4] On August 23, 2025, the Texas Senate passed the map with a vote 18–8. Governor Greg Abbott has signed the map into law, and therefore will be the active map used in the 2026 House elections in Texas.
On November 18, 2025, a federal court blocked Texas from using its newly drawn congressional map in next year's midterms, ruling that the map is likely an unconstitutional "racial gerrymander".[5] Three days later on November 21, Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito granted the request by the state to pause the court's ruling that reverts the election back to using the maps drawn in 2021 until the full Supreme Court of the United States could make a decision.[6][7] On December 4, the Supreme Court ruled that Texas can use the new map in the 2026 midterm elections, striking down the lower court's ruling.[8]

Interactive map version
The new 9th district, which previously encompassed southern portions of Houston and such suburbs as Missouri City and was represented by incumbent Democrat Al Green, has been relocated to the eastern portions of the Houston area as a result of redistricting; Green is now running for reelection in the newly redrawn 18th district.[18]
The new district, which has a 58.6% Hispanic voting age population, covers such east and southeast Houston neighborhoods as Denver Harbor, Magnolia Park, Park Place and Edgebrook, as well as most of the suburbs of Pasadena, Baytown, Deer Park, La Porte, Galena Park, Channelview and Crosby, and exurban Liberty County including Cleveland, Liberty and Dayton. Donald Trump carried the district in all three of his elections - a 49.8% plurality in 2016, 53.7% in 2020, and 59.5% in 2024, and the district also gave Ted Cruz 54.4% of the vote in 2024.

The new 23rd district covers southwestern Texas, including the Big Bend, and stretches eastward through Del Rio and Uvalde to the northern San Antonio suburbs including the west side of Stone Oak, Shavano Park and Camp Bullis (with a small finger extending eastward to Lackland AFB in southwest San Antonio, and also westward to the eastern fringes of the El Paso suburbs. The incumbent is Republican Tony Gonzales, who was re-elected with 62.3% of the vote in 2024.[18] Democrats are targeting the majority Hispanic district, which has a one-third White minority, and gave Donald Trump and Ted Cruz 56.8% and 52.9% of the vote, respectively, in 2024.
Republican leaders called on Gonzales to end his re-election campaign after he admitted to having a sexual relationship with a former staff member who later died by suicide, following his earlier denial of the allegations.[211][212] Gonzales ended his campaign on March 5,[213] leading to the cancellation of the runoff and making challenger Brandon Herrera the presumptive nominee.

The new 24th district, centered on Dallas Fort Worth International Airport in the heart of the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex, encompasses the suburbs north of Fort Worth and Dallas, including Grapevine, Bedford, North Richland Hills and Southlake in northeast Tarrant County, and the wealthy Park Cities north of downtown Dallas, as well as the neighboring Knox Park and Lower Greenville neighborhoods and most of north Dallas (including Preston Hollow) in Dallas itself and the Dallas County suburbs of Farmers Branch and Coppell.
Due to redistricting, the district has two incumbents, Republican Beth Van Duyne, who was re-elected with 60.3% of the vote in 2024, and Democrat Julie Johnson, who was elected with 61.9% of the vote in 2024 from the old 32nd District.[18] Donald Trump won 57.1% of the vote in this affluent district, which also gave Ted Cruz 54.6% of the vote that same year against Democrat Colin Allred, whom Johnson succeeded in Congress. Johnson has since decided to seek reelection in the newly redrawn 33rd district (see below).

The new 25th district runs from northern Arlington and southern and eastern Fort Worth in Tarrant County, whose portion is the only portion of the district considered even remotely competitive (and in fact, favorable) to Democrats, out to several heavily Republican exurban and rural areas south and west of Fort Worth and just east of Abilene, including Cleburne, Granbury, Willow Park, Mineral Wells, Stephenville, Jacksboro and Eastland.
Due to redistricting, the district has two incumbents, Republican Roger Williams, who was re-elected unopposed in 2024, and Democrat Marc Veasey, who was re-elected with 68.7% of the vote in 2024.[18] Veasey, the incumbent from the old 33rd district (see below) decided to not seek reelection, instead pursuing a short-lived bid for Tarrant County judge before dropping out of that race. Donald Trump won 61.4% of the vote in this district in 2024, which also saw Ted Cruz win 58.4% of the vote.

The new 32nd district covers several suburban areas directly north and northeast of Dallas, including most of the Dallas County portion of Carrollton and Addison along with all of Richardson (including the Collin County portion) and the northern halves of Garland and Rowlett, as well as the far north side of Dallas itself. The district then stretches eastward and crosses Lake Ray Hubbard to take in suburban Rockwall County and the Lake Tawakoni area, traveling all the way east to such northern Tyler exurbs as Mineola and Gilmer.
Prior to redistricting, the incumbent was Democrat Julie Johnson; however, Johnson was drawn out of the 32nd district and into the 24th, ultimately deciding to seek reelection in the 33rd district (see below) and leaving this district as an open seat.[18] In 2024, the new district gave 57.7% of the vote to Donald Trump and 55.2% to Ted Cruz, with Democrats only considered competitive in the Dallas County and Richardson portion of the otherwise heavily Republican district.

District 33

Interactive map version
The new 33rd district, previously encompassing mostly Hispanic parts of the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex including Downtown Fort Worth, western Dallas, and parts of Grand Prairie, Irving, Carrollton, and Farmers Branch, has since been redrawn to be exclusively within Dallas County. Prior to redistricting, the incumbent was Fort Worth-based Democrat Marc Veasey. However, Veasey was drawn out of the 33rd district and into the 25th, and ultimately chose to pursue a short-lived bid for Tarrant County judge before abandoning that bid. The new incumbent is Democrat Jasmine Crockett, who was elected with 84.9% of the vote in 2024, in her previous District 30; however, Crockett chose to pursue a run for the United States Senate seat currently held by John Cornyn.[18]
Former Congressman and 2024 U.S. Senate nominee Colin Allred (who lost in the general election that year to Ted Cruz) and current 32nd District incumbent Julie Johnson are now running for the Democratic nomination to represent this district, which is centered in Downtown and Uptown Dallas and also extends in four separate directions - northwest to Love Field and a northern section of Irving centered on the Valley Ranch area, northeast to the Swiss Avenue and Buckner Boulevard (east of White Rock Lake) corridors in east Dallas, southeast to southeast Dallas (including Pleasant Grove) and Balch Springs, and southwest to West Dallas as well as Cockrell Hill and central Grand Prairie. The new district gave 65.2% of the vote to Kamala Harris and 68.7% to Allred in 2024, and is over 50 percent Hispanic.

Interactive map version
The new 34th district stretches from Brownsville in the Rio Grande Valley, northward along the Gulf Coast to most of Corpus Christi, covering all of Cameron, Willacy, Kenedy, Kleberg and most of Nueces counties, essentially a recreation of the old 27th district from its establishment in 1982 until the 2010 election. The incumbent is Democrat Vicente Gonzalez, who was re-elected with 51.3% of the vote in 2024.[18]
Donald Trump won the district with 54.6% of the vote in 2024, having previously lost the district to Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden in 2016 and 2020, respectively, with Barack Obama winning the district twice in 2008 and 2012. Also, Ted Cruz won the district with a 49.7% plurality in 2024, even though the district gave 55% of the vote to Beto O'Rourke over Cruz in 2018.

Interactive map version
The new 35th district previously connected eastern San Antonio to southeastern Austin, through the I-35 corridor. However, with the new redistricting the 35th has been moved significantly to the south and east; it now covers much of south and northeast San Antonio, plus such suburbs as Live Oak, Converse and Elmendorf along with Guadalupe (including Seguin and Schertz), Wilson and Karnes counties.
Prior to redistricting, the incumbent was Democrat Greg Casar; however, Casar was drawn out of the 35th district and into the 37th.[18] On August 25, 2025, Greg Casar announced he would not seek re-election to this district instead run for new 37th district due to Republicans' gerrymandering in Texas.[347] The new district remains majority Hispanic, albeit with over 53.7% of the voting age population being Hispanic, with 34.6% of the voting age population being White. Donald Trump won 54.6% of the vote in this district in 2024, having won by single-digit margins here in both 2016 and 2020. Also, Ted Cruz won 50.6% of the vote in this district in 2024 (as well as in 2018 with 49.7% of the vote).

Interactive map version
The new 36th district encompasses parts of Southeast Texas, including the Harris County side of the Clear Lake region of Houston. While largely unchanged from its previous iteration, the new iteration includes Lufkin and the surrounding Piney Woods region as well as Silsbee, Jasper and most of Beaumont, and also extends to almost all of Chambers County (including Mont Belvieu) east of Houston) before extending into southeast Houston (including Hobby Airport and Ellington Field, as well as Glenbrook Valley and the aforementioned Clear Lake City development) along with the southeast Harris County communities of Seabrook, Webster and Harris County's portion of Friendswood, and a small sliver of northern Brazoria County centered on most of Pearland.
The incumbent is Republican Brian Babin, who was re-elected with 69.4% of the vote in 2024.[18] Donald Trump won 61.8% of the vote in the new district in 2024, as did Ted Cruz with 59.1% of the vote.

Interactive map version
The new 37th district is based in all but the westernmost parts of Austin, with virtually all of the precincts of the exclusively Travis County-based district favoring Democrats to varying degrees; the new district has a White plurality with a 34% Hispanic voting age population. The incumbent is Democrat Lloyd Doggett, who was re-elected with 75.9% of the vote in 2024.[18] On August 21, 2025, Doggett announced that he would not seek re-election due to mid-decade redistricting, and fellow Democratic Rep. Greg Casar being moved into the 37th district.[369] On August 25, 2025, Casar announced his bid for re-election from this district.[352] Kamala Harris won 76.8% of the vote in the new 37th District, which also gave 79.2% of the vote to Colin Allred; in both cases, the highest of any district amongst the state's new congressional districts.

Interactive map version
The new 38th district, much like its original iteration first used in the 2022 election (and historically the base of the original Houston-based iteration of the 7th district from 1966 until the 2022 redistricting), is based in west Houston and northwest Harris County, including all or parts of the west Houston neighborhoods of River Oaks, Tanglewood, Memorial City, Spring Branch and the Energy Corridor, as well as the communities of Jersey Village, Copperfield, Cypress, Champion Forest, Klein and Tomball in northwest Harris County.
The incumbent is Republican Wesley Hunt, who was re-elected with 62.9% of the vote in 2024 and is running for the Republican nomination for U.S. Senate in 2026.[18] Donald Trump won the district in 2024 with 59.5% of the vote, as did Ted Cruz (who resides in the district) with 56.6% of the vote.
