When Texas Republicans established a new congressional map with a new 37th District based mostly in and around Austin, Democratic Rep. Lloyd Doggett decided to run there rather than in the successor district to his current seat in Texas’s 35th District. Only about 11 percent of Doggett’s current constituents are in the new 37th District, so there was some thought that maybe Doggett might not have a cakewalk victory in his primary. But it looks like he may win easily, as the early vote has him winning 83 percent.
