On June 2, 2026, Socialist Nithya Raman gave a teary concession speech when she came in third and would not advance to the General. Then the Democratic Party “Ballot Harvesters” combed the homeless encampments. Now the Democrat Mayor lost reelection. Karma?
Well, at least a Yankee won something this year.
Thank you to my family, friends, campaign staff, and the countless supporters who stood with us during this campaign. We could not have won this race without every person who knocked on doors, worked the polls, hosted events, and pitched in to help the cause. I am truly grateful to all of you. And of course, I want to thank all of the voters across the district who placed their trust in me. Nobody will work harder to continue earning that trust.
Tonight’s victory belongs to the people of Texas’s 21st District. I’m not going to Washington for myself, but rather to be a strong, responsive voice for every family in this district.
Together, we can build a better future for our families, our neighbors, and every community across Texas 21. I’m excited to get to work. I will be praying for all of you and for the future of this great nation. God bless Texas, and God bless America.
