2026 Texas general election

Overview

Texas voters are preparing for the general election on November 3, 2026. The election cycle includes various deadlines for voter registration, early voting, and mail-in ballots.

Key contests involve local, congressional, and judicial races. In Texas House District 65, Republican incumbent Mitch Little is seeking a second term against Democrat Detrick DeBurr. Congressional races are also notable, including Joaquin Castro’s bid for an eighth term in the 20th District and Mark Teixeira’s challenge to Kristin Hook in the 21st District, following Chip Roy’s decision not to seek reelection. Additionally, a mid-cycle redistricting process in San Antonio has reduced the city’s congressional delegation from five members to four.

On the judicial level, voters will elect members to the Texas Supreme Court and a new statewide appellate court. In San Angelo, Governor Greg Abbott has been campaigning against Democrat Gina Hinojosa, focusing on issues such as job creation, affordability, border security, and taxation.
