2026 Texas federal ballot

Texas votes on a U.S. Senate seat and all 38 U.S. House seats on November 3, 2026.

What else is on your ballot

Federal races only, not governor, state or local contests or ballot measures. Texas publishes sample ballots through local election offices rather than one statewide tool, so start at County Voter Registration Officials, run by the Texas Secretary of State.

Texas races to watch

The delegation, district by district

39 seats on the ballot

Party of the member holding each seat now, never a margin and never a prediction. A hatched district means that member is not on the ballot for it. TX adopted a new congressional map in 2025, after the district boundaries this site holds. Party and members are current; the lines are the previous ones.

Independent spending filed on Texas's races, by whether the committee is also spending in other states this cycle. A filing records where a group spends, not where its donors live, so this is a measure of reach, never of who paid for it.

Every race on the ballot

Each row names the November ballot on record; the filed count is every candidate on file with the FEC, not counting those who withdrew, retired or died. Each row opens the full field, the money, and the outside spending for that seat.
