TEXAS MIDTERM 2026
WHY THIS RACE MATTERS
There are only 31 State Senators for all of Texas, and every bill has to get past them.
WHO’S RUNNING
Laticia Ambroz
Democrat
She's a grandmother of eight (with a great-grandchild on the way) who decided in her 60s, after a lifetime in Texas, to run for state office for the first time.
Bryan Hughes
Republican
He's the East Texas lawyer who wrote the six-week abortion ban that let private citizens sue anyone who helped someone get one, a legal trick that helped it dodge the courts for over a year.
