On Nov. 4, 2026, Texas voters across the state cast their ballots in the general election to determine representation at the federal, state, and local levels of government. Early voting took place from Oct. 19-30, during which several areas of the state reported record-breaking voter participation. Multiple counties reported early voting totals exceeding those recorded during the 2022 midterm elections, reflecting vigorous voter engagement and interest in this year’s contests.
The strong early turnout set the stage for a closely watched election day, with the results carrying significant implications for Texas’ political landscape, statewide policy priorities, and the composition and legislative agenda of the 90th Texas Legislature. Texas’ next legislative session convenes Jan. 12, 2027.
All statewide races flipped from Republican to Democrat. The official outcome of many races remains pending. Results are being reported from the Secretary of State.
