U.S. House, Texas District 30

2-year termOpen seat: incumbent Jasmine Crockett (D) ran for U.S. Senate and did not win the nomination. Republican nominee Everett Jackson won the May 2026 runoff. Ballotpedia lists independent Oxford Nordberg, who is not on the Secretary of State listing. Rated safe Democratic per Ballotpedia. District lines: PlanC2333 (H.B. 4, 89th Legislature, 2nd Called Session, signed Aug. 29, 2025). A three-judge federal panel enjoined it Nov. 18, 2025; the U.S. Supreme Court stayed that order Dec. 4, 2025 (Texas Legislative Council timeline) and on April 27, 2026 summarily reversed in Abbott v. LULAC, so PlanC2333 governs the 2026 election. Members elected under the 2021 map (PlanC2193) serve until January 2027.Partially researched. Last researched Oct 20, 2026Report a correction
