Lloyd Doggett (D-Austin) won a 10th term in Congress, his first representing the 37th District, with 76.8% of the vote in 2022.  



The Texas Tribune, 10/18/2021
Longtime U.S. Rep. Lloyd Doggett, D-Austin, has decided to run for reelection in Texas' 37th Congressional District, opting to vie for one of Texas' two new congressional districts — a bright-blue seat concentrated in Austin — rather than his current district, which reaches down to San Antonio
Doggett announced the decision Sunday in an email to supporters and then shared it in person Monday outside Bryker Woods Elementary School in Austin. 
“Nobody, me included, has any entitlement to public office, but Bryker Woods does issue reports cards," Doggett said, "and I’m ready for my neighbors to grade my service in Congress and my devotion to the families of this city."
