U.S. House, Texas District 2

2-year termOpen seat: incumbent Dan Crenshaw (R, TX-02) lost the March 3, 2026 Republican primary to state Rep. Steve Toth, so no incumbent is on the ballot. District lines: PlanC2333 (H.B. 4, 89th Legislature, 2nd Called Session, signed Aug. 29, 2025). A federal panel enjoined it Nov. 18, 2025; the U.S. Supreme Court stayed that order Dec. 4, 2025 and summarily reversed on April 27, 2026 (Abbott v. LULAC), so PlanC2333 governs the 2026 election. Other suits remain pending. No Libertarian or declared write-in candidate appears for this district on the Secretary of State listing. Not rated competitive (Cook Solid R, Sabato Safe R per Wikipedia ratings table and Ballotpedia).
