US House election results for Lacore and Teixeira
Overview
In the US House of Representatives elections, two high profile figures secured victories in their respective districts.
In South Carolina, Democrat Nancy Lacore, a retired Navy Vice Admiral, won the 1st Congressional District seat. Lacore defeated Republican Jenny Costa Honeycutt, who conceded the race after unofficial results showed Lacore leading by approximately 3,300 votes. This victory represents a significant flip for Democrats in a long term Republican stronghold. Lacore, who served 35 years in the Navy, had previously been removed from a senior leadership position in August 2025 by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
In Texas, Republican Adrian Teixeira won the 21st District seat. Teixeira, a former Major League Baseball player for the Texas Rangers and New York Yankees, defeated Democratic candidate Kristin Hook.
