GOP Wins Special Election That Had Become a Bellwether for Democrats in Texas
(Worthy News) – Republicans won handily a closely watched special election Tuesday to keep hold of a suburban Houston district that President Donald Trump won easily four years ago, fending off a national blitz by Democrats in a Texas legislative race.
The victory by Republican Gary Gates, who put more than $1.5 million of his own money into his run for state House District 28, is sure to bring a sigh of relief for the GOP in a race that was being tracked far beyond Texas.

In final unofficial results, Gates polled 58% of the vote to 42% for Democrat Eliz Markowitz. [ Source: Time (Read More…) ]
