Democrat Taylor Rehmet flipped Texas Senate District 9, a Republican stronghold, with overwhelming Latino support, setting up a rematch in November.
Democrat Taylor Rehmet won a special election in Texas Senate District 9, flipping a traditionally Republican seat, with strong support from Latino voters.
Precinct-level data shows Rehmet won 79% of the Hispanic vote—26 points higher than Kamala Harris in 2024—and carried majority-Hispanic areas by an average of 59 points, more than double the 2022 Democratic margin.
In 40 precincts, Democrats gained over 50 points, 15 of which were majority-Hispanic.
The victory, driven by a significant shift in Latino voter alignment, has energized Texas Democrats, who are now targeting other Republican-leaning districts with large Hispanic populations in Houston, San Antonio, and along the border.
Rehmet will face Republican Leigh Wambsganss again in November.
