2024 Texas House of Representatives election

Following statewide primaries held on March 5, 2024, the 2024 Texas House of Representatives election will be held on November 5, 2024. The winners of this election will serve in the 89th Texas Legislature. It will be held alongside numerous other federal, state, and local elections, including the 2024 U.S. presidential election and the 2024 Texas Senate election.

Background
Republicans expanded their majority by one seat to an 86–64 margin in the 2022 elections, winning multiple competitive, heavily Hispanic, districts in South Texas, while Democrats performed better than expected in suburban areas.

During the regular session, the legislature expanded school armed security measures, banned diversity, equity and inclusion offices at public universities, and allowed school districts to hire or volunteer chaplains for mental health support for students. Near the end of the session, the House voted unanimously to expel Republican Bryan Slaton for having an improper relationship with an aide. Republican infighting led to the collapse of a school voucher bill during the regular session, but governor Greg Abbott vowed to call special sessions until it passed. On May 27, 2023, the House voted 121–23 to impeach attorney general Ken Paxton after a House committee found that he had used taxpayer funds to settle a legal dispute.

The impeachment effort against Paxton failed when the Texas Senate voted to acquit him of all charges in September 2023. Abbott called four special sessions to push for the voucher bill, but these efforts failed, bringing the effort to a final defeat in November 2023 when 21 Republicans voted with Democrats on an amendment to strip the voucher provisions from the House's education bill.

District 2 special election
The special election to fill the seat of expelled representative Bryan Slaton was held on November 7, 2023, but no candidate received a majority of the vote, with Jill Dutton and Brent Money, both Republicans, advancing to the runoff. Dutton received support from Speaker Dade Phelan and former governor Rick Perry, while Money received support from governor Greg Abbott, U.S. Senator Ted Cruz, and attorney general Ken Paxton. Many saw the race as a preview for the intraparty battle over vouchers and Paxton's impeachment that was soon to take place in the March primary. Dutton narrowly won the runoff on January 30, 2024.

Statewide primary election
Dozens of Republican lawmakers faced primary challenges over votes on the impeachment of Ken Paxton and on school vouchers. Paxton and Abbott combined have endorsed primary challengers for over half of all Republicans running for re-election. Former president Donald Trump has additionally endorsed seven challengers to House incumbents, with the three men endorsing opposing candidates in several races, including multiple in Collin County. The primary has garnered national attention due to its attempts to push the House in a more conservative direction and the high number of primary challengers, especially the challenge against incumbent speaker Dade Phelan.

Conservative challengers ousted a number of incumbent Republicans in the primary, including half of those targeted by Greg Abbott. Eight others were forced into May runoff elections, including Phelan. Paxton's challengers were less successful at defeating incumbents, especially when his endorsements conflicted with Abbott's. The results marked a significant increase in support for school vouchers among Republican legislators.

On the Democratic side, multiple incumbents have announced their intention to run for higher office, setting up open primaries for their House seats. A small number of Democrats have been targeted for primary challenges due to their votes with Republicans on LGBT rights and other issues.

Runoff election
Six of the eight Republican incumbents forced into runoffs were defeated. Three had Abbott-endorsed challengers due to their opposition to school vouchers, while the others had been targeted due to their vote on the Paxton impeachment. Only Gary VanDeaver, an opponent of vouchers, and incumbent speaker Dade Phelan survived their runoff elections. Abbott suggested that the results of the runoff ensure enough votes to pass vouchers in the next legislative session, although this assumes that Democrats do not gain any seats in the general election. Democrats, for their part, ousted representative Shawn Thierry in a runoff, targeting her due to her votes with Republicans on LGBT rights.

General election
Commentators expect there to be few competitive seats in the general election. Each party only holds one seat won by the opposing party's gubernatorial nominee in the 2022 election.

Predictions
The following races are considered competitive:

Summary of Results by Texas House District
† - Incumbent not seeking re-election

Detailed results
Results according to the Texas Secretary of State.

District 1
Incumbent Republican Gary VanDeaver is running for re-election. Chris Spencer forced VanDeaver into a runoff, with the latter's votes against school vouchers and for the impeachment of Ken Paxton emerging as primary points of contention between the two candidates. VanDeaver himself won election to the House in a 2014 Republican primary against then-incumbent George Lavender, who was considered much more conservative than VanDeaver. VanDeaver defeated Spencer in the runoff.

District 2
Incumbent Republican Jill Dutton ran for re-election. She was elected in a January 2024 special election and faced a rematch with Brent Money. Money, the more conservative of the two candidates, sought victory in the primary after blaming his defeat in the special election on Democrats allegedly voting for Dutton. Texas has an open primary system for its elections. Money defeated Dutton.

District 3
Incumbent Republican Cecil Bell Jr. is running for re-election unopposed.

{{legend|#FFB580ff|Covey—40–50%}}

{{legend|#FF9A50ff|Covey—50–60%}}]] Incumbent Republican Speaker of the Texas House Dade Phelan is running for re-election. Phelan was targeted by conservatives over his support of the impeachment of attorney general Ken Paxton, the House's failure to pass school voucher legislation in the 2023 session, and his continuation of the practice of appointing Democrats as chairs of House committees. Despite heralding the passage of conservative legislation on abortion, guns, and border security, Phelan has been targeted as "insufficiently conservative" by many in the state party, which voted to censure him in February 2024. The race has been seen as the primary hotspot in the party's internal battle in the primary over the Paxton impeachment and school vouchers. Much of the campaign has focused on Paxton's impeachment, but it has also included the alleged harassment of Phelan's wife and terroristic threats against Phelan himself. This is Phelan's first primary challenge since he initially won the Beaumont-area district in 2014.

David Covey forced Phelan into a runoff in what many see as a battle between "old guard" Texas Republicans and the far-right. Supporters of Covey argued that Phelan has given too much power to house Democrats through his continuation of the practice of appointing Democrats as chairs of certain house committees. Prominent Republicans such as former governor Rick Perry and former U.S. Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison headlined fundraising for Phelan, including businesswoman Miriam Adelson, while conservative businessman Tim Dunn has given financial backing to Covey in what has become the most expensive house race in state history. Controversy arose during the campaign after a deepfaked mailer depicting Phelan with prominent Democratic politicians such as Nancy Pelosi was circulated. The ad accused Phelan of being a Democratic "puppet," but it did not violate the state's recently-passed anti-deepfake law, causing some to consider revising it during the next session.

Phelan narrowly won the runoff against Covey, ensuring his re-election. His future as Speaker is less certain, however, as many within his caucus have called for his replacement.

Katrina Pierson, the spokesperson for Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign, forced Holland into a runoff. Pierson had endorsed one of Abbott's primary challengers in 2022, and he did not endorse her before the March primary. While Abbott and other Texas Republicans endorsed her after she made the runoff, Donald Trump and Ted Cruz had not, despite her work on both men's previous campaigns. School vouchers and gun control emerged as the primary dividing issues between the candidates. Pierson defeated Holland in the runoff.
