Trump-Backed Candidates Continue To Lose Big In Local Polls
One year into U.S. President Donald Trump’s second term, a seismic shift occurred in the heart of Texas, long considered a Republican stronghold. In the special election for Texas State Senate District 9 (SD-9), a Democratic candidate secured a 14 percentage point victory over the Republican contender. This district, where Trump had won by a 17 percentage point margin in the previous presidential election, saw a staggering 31 percentage point swing against the Republican Party within a single year.
