Police Officer Adjusts Houston Wall Hanging
Freedom Caucus Crazy Troy Nehls (R-Richmond) won 6th term to Congress with 62.2% of the vote.
Brennan Center for Justice, 12/7/2021
But if Republicans were willing to create a heavily white Democratic district in central Texas, they took a different tack when it came to communities of color. Despite the fact that non-white communities were responsible for 95 percent of the state’s population growth last decade, Republicans refused to create additional new minority opportunity districts in either the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex or Houston. In addition, they aggressively broke up diverse suburban districts where multiracial coalitions had come close to winning power last decade.
The changes had both a political effect and a racial one. Suburban communities of color in places like Fort Bend County were ruthlessly divided — some voters of color were kept in existing districts, while others were surgically moved into Democratic-held swing districts. As a result, once highly competitive, white-majority swing districts became deeply Democratic ones under the new map [emphasis added]
Rep. Nehls lives in Fort Bend County.
