The 2024 United States Senate election in Texas was held on November 5, 2024, to elect a member of the United States Senate to represent the state of Texas . Republican incumbent Ted Cruz won re-election to a third term, defeating Democratic challenger and U.S. representative Colin Allred .[ 2] [ 3] [ 4] Primary elections took place on March 5, 2024, during Super Tuesday .[ 5]
Original polling showed Cruz as a clear favorite, but polls closer to the election showed a closer race. Cruz ultimately outperformed polling and expectations and won re-election by nine points, improving on his 2018 margin by six points and flipping thirteen counties.[ 6] [ 7]
Texas is generally considered to be a Republican stronghold , having not elected a Democrat to any statewide office since 1994.[ 8]
Republicans control both U.S. Senate seats, all statewide offices, both houses of the Texas Legislature , and a large majority in Texas's U.S. House congressional delegation .
Cruz was first elected in 2012 , defeating Paul Sadler by 15.84 points and was reelected in 2018 by only 2.56 points, narrowly defeating Beto O'Rourke .[ 9] [ 10] The close elections in 2018 prompted many electoral analysts to speculate that Texas could become a swing state , but in the 2020 and 2022 elections, Republicans increased their margins of victory.[ 11] [ 12]
This race was considered to generally favor Cruz, but some considered the race to have the potential to become competitive.[ 13]
