Hoovering Fort Worth suburbs
Former White House doctor Ronny Jackson (R-Amarillo) won a 2nd term to Congress with 75.4% of the vote. "Bolstering incumbents with even safer districts."
The Texas Tribune, 10/27/2021
But there’s another game going on after those districts are drawn, best illustrated by Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, at the moment the most adept politician in Texas government.
He’s choosing his own senators.
Patrick is backing a current senator, Dawn Buckingham of Lakeway, in her bid for land commissioner, a statewide office. That departure gave Senate mapmakers some room on their redistricting maps, and the redrawn district now includes the home of former Sen. Pete Flores of Pleasanton. Flores lost to Democrat Roland Gutierrez in 2020, and now the Republican is Patrick’s hand-picked candidate for the reconfigured Buckingham district. Patrick wants Flores back in the Senate, where he was a reliable vote for the boss’ priorities.
