Redistricting approved by Texas Republicans in August 2025 shifted the 9th Congressional District from a heavily Democratic seat long held by Rep. Al Green to one with a strong Republican lean, prompting Green to run instead in the neighboring 18th District. This left an open seat now rated Solid Republican by Cook Political Report, Sabato’s Crystal Ball, and other forecasters. Republican nominee Alex Mealer, a Trump-endorsed veteran, defeated state Rep. Briscoe Cain in the May 2026 runoff, while Democrat Leticia Gutierrez advanced from her March primary. With the general election set for November 3, 2026, and no subsequent developments altering the district’s partisan composition, trader consensus places the Republican outcome at 86%.
