US EditionDemocratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett is running for the US Senate in Texas. Allred to seek House seat
Jasmine Crockett leads Democratic primary for Senate with strong polling while Colin Allred pivots to a competitive North Texas House race amid redistricting changes.
- Hours before the Dec. 8 filing deadline, U.S. Rep. Jasmine Crockett filed for the Democratic U.S. Senate primary, scheduling a 4:30 p.m. announcement.
- Mid‑decade redistricting moved Crockett out of District 30, and the U.S. Supreme Court ruled Texas may use the new congressional map for the 2026 election.
- Polls show Crockett leading potential Democrats with 3 support, and her national profile and fundraising bolster her viability.
- Colin Allred announced he is ending his Senate bid to run for the newly drawn District 33, while Crockett's Senate bid vacates District 30, prompting filings including Marc Veasey’s for that seat.
- With the Texas primary scheduled for early 2026 and a Dec. 8 filing deadline, the race could cost at least 750 million and has historic implications if Crockett wins.
