观察

整体, the Texas House remains business friendly body, although the so-called Freedom Caucus potentially earned five new representatives: Mayes Middleton (def. 代表. Wayne Faircloth), Steve Toth (replacing 代表. Mark Keough), Candy Noble (replacing 代表. Jodie Laubenberg), Jared Patterson (replacing 代表. Pat Fallon), and Jonathon Boos (replacing 代表. 辛迪事实).

It’s also worth noting that, although Gov. Greg Abbott sailed to the 代表ublican nomination (90.3%) he lost two of the three races where he challenged incumbent 代表ublican representatives (HD 134 Davis and HD 122 Larson).

There were six incumbents who lost:

  • 共和党人:森. 克雷格·埃斯蒂斯和代表们. Wayne Faircloth and Jason Villalba
  • 民主党人:代表. Tomas Uresti, Diana Arevalo, and 罗伯特·.
