Is TX-02 in play?

[Politician]

An open seat in the Houston suburbs that's R+11, but Trump only won it by 9%.

[Strudelcutie4427]

Absolutely not. The republican candidate is a veteran with a cool eyepatch. He's gonna smack down who ever the democrats run

[BundouYMB]

Trump winning it by 9 means it voted 11 points to the right of the country, exactly in line with the PVI. So I'm not sure why you said "only" 9 points.

Anyways, it's not impossible, depends on exactly how huge the wave is.

[KingSweden]

Probably not.
Republicans got a pretty good candidate here in Rick Crenshaw.

[Checkard]

Cook PVI of 11 suggests that in a typical R on D matchup the R wins by 22 points. If something is 11 points right of the nation the expected outcome is 61R-39D according to PV. Hillary Clinton did 13 points better than the PVI.

[Darthpi – Anti-Florida Activist]

I don't consider this competitive - it shifted very hard between 2012 and 2016, and I suspect Hillary probably maxed out the Democratic vote there. Maybe in a few years it will be viable, but probably not yet.

[Xing]

Probably not, unless it's a Democratic megatsunami, rather than a mere tsunami.

[Tartarus Sauce]

Depends how big the wave is.

[Thunder98 🇮🇱 🤝 🇵🇸]

Texas 6th is probably a better pick up do to Joe Barton resigning due to a Sex Scandal. It's only has a P V of 9. Don't know what exact percentage did Trump won in this district in 2016. It's still safe R though.

[136or142]

Dan Crenshaw vs. Todd Litton.

Had the Democrats nominated J Darnell Jones, two navy Lieutenants would have been running against each other.

[ON Progressive]

Probably not, unless it's a Democratic megatsunami, rather than a mere tsunami.

[Kyle Rittenhouse is a Political Prisoner]

Likely R, but it could be competitive under the right circumstances.

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

No, Crenshaw is a good candidate.

[Co-Chair Bagel23]

Man, it's hard to dislike Crenshaw even as a democrat, would obviously still vote for Litton, but yeah.

[Ye We Can]

Crenshaw is a great candidate: young, military background, inspiring story, speaks Spanish, targeting young and moderate voters. It's Safe R.

[Indy Texas]

No. Democrats recruited a good candidate, but the GOP lucked out and got a really good candidate after the absolutely terrible state representative Kevin Roberts decided to run one of the most negative, spiteful, immature run-off campaigns in memory and immolate his career in the process.
