It has not favored Democrats in any recent statewide election, voting for Sen. Ted Cruz by a 3-point margin in 2018, the best election cycle for Texas Democrats this century. “Brandon Herrera’s disturbing history of extremism, violence, and antisemitic rhetoric puts this open Congressional district squarely in play,” DelBene said in a statement. They include the 9th Congressional District in Houston, the 32nd Congressional District in North Texas, the open 35th District and the Trump-leaning seats of two incumbent Democrats: Rep. Henry Cuellar’s Laredo-based district and Rep. Vicente Gonzalez’s Rio Grande Valley seat.
