flag Democrat runoff set in Texas’s 18th District after no candidate won outright in primary.

flag Democratic candidates Christian Menefee and Amanda Edwards advanced to a runoff in Texas’s 18th Congressional District special election, following a crowded primary with 16 candidates. flag Neither secured over 50% of the vote, requiring a runoff to fill the seat left vacant in March after the death of Rep. Sylvester Turner, who served just two months. flag The winner will serve the remainder of Turner’s term in a deeply Democratic district encompassing parts of Houston. flag The runoff, expected early next year, could affect the narrow Republican majority in the U.S. House. flag Governor Greg Abbott delayed the election until November, citing preparation needs, a move criticized by Democrats as politically motivated. flag The district is set to be redrawn under a new map influenced by President Trump’s push to boost Republican representation.
