Democrats Win Major Texas Races, Ending Decades of GOP Control
In a historic shift, Democrats won two major statewide elections in Texas, ending decades of Republican dominance. James Talarico defeated Ken Paxton for the US Senate, and Gina Hinojosa beat three-term Governor Greg Abbott, becoming Texas's first Latina governor. The victories were driven by increased Hispanic voter support and dissatisfaction with President Trump's policies on the economy, immigration, and the Iran war.
