The Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee is sending money to Texas ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. National Democratic organizations are often reluctant to support their party’s candidates in the deep red state.
The inclusion of Texas in the organization’s 50-million-dollar nationwide effort is an apparent sign that Democrats are still hoping to turn Texas blue, one election at a time. The GOP has held both chambers of the Legislature for more than 20 years, and Democrats haven’t won a statewide election since 1994.
