2026 United States House of Representatives elections in Texas

← 2024 November 3, 2026 2028 →
All 38 Texas seats to the United States House of Representatives
Party Republican Democratic Last election 25 13

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 all thirty-eight of the state's 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]

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]

As of February 2026, 9 representatives (3 Democrats and 6 Republicans) have announced their retirement, 3 of whom (1 Democrat and 2 Republicans) are retiring to run for other offices.

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.

Nominee Roger Williams Dione Sims Party Republican Democratic

Incumbent U.S. Representative Marc Veasey (Democratic) Roger Williams (Republican)

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.

Incumbent U.S. Representative Jasmine Crockett (Democratic)

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.

2026 Texas's 34th congressional district election

← 2024 2028 →

Nominee Vicente Gonzalez Eric Flores Party Democratic Republican

Incumbent U.S. Representative Vicente Gonzalez Democratic

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.

2026 Texas's 35th congressional district election

← 2024 2028 →

Party Democratic Republican

Incumbent U.S. Representative None (New seat)

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.^[346] 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).
