Texas House Rep. James Talarico leads by around one million votes as of midnight on Election Day.

Talarico addressed a crowd at his Austin rally. The candidate for U.S. Senate made his appearance in San Angelo early on during the Democratic primaries, in October of 2025. At that time, he drew a large crowd and a winding queue to take pictures. He presented his campaign on straight economic lines, discussing the campaign in terms like Bottom Vs. Top, making frequent mentions of Billionaires.

The Associated Press reports that Texas Governor Greg Abbott conceded the election to State Rep. Gina Hinojosa a little after 9 p.m. on Tuesday night, making history as the first Latino in the states history. She earned 4.5 million votes to Abbott’s 3.8 million. As of publish 81 percent of votes have come in.

Abbott conceded after being down around 1 million votes, and conceded unequivocally. The race for Lt. Gov remains open as of writing, though the incumbent Dan Patrick is down over one million votes.
