U.S. House district for Texas From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Texas's 35th congressional district is a district that was created as a result of the 2010 United States census.[5] The first candidates ran in the 2012 House elections and were seated for the 113th United States Congress.[6] This election was won by Lloyd Doggett, who previously represented Texas's 25th congressional district before redistricting.[7]
The district includes parts of the San Antonio metropolitan area (primarily black- and Hispanic-majority areas), including portions of Bexar County, thin strips of Comal and Hays counties, a portion of Caldwell County, and portions of southern and eastern Austin in Travis County.[8]
In March 2017, a panel of federal judges ruled that the 35th district was illegally drawn with discriminatory intent.[9] In August 2017, another panel of federal judges in San Antonio ruled that the district was unconstitutional.[10] However, the district was allowed to stand in the U.S. Supreme Court's 2018 Abbott v. Perez ruling.[11]
Greg Casar, from Austin, won the 2022 election for this seat; Doggett moved to the newly created 37th district, centered almost entirely on Austin and containing small amounts of its suburbs, and won the election there. As a result, Austin will be represented by two Democrats in the House.
With a Cook PVI of D+21 (as of 2023), it is now the second-most Democratic district that includes Austin. Only the 37th is more Democratic with a D+24 rating.[4]
