Harris County

The 2018 midterm elections marked the first time more than 1 million Harris County residents turned out to vote in a nonpresidential election. The Harris County Clerk’s Office recorded a total of 1,209,358 votes by the end of Election Day, which included an absentee turnout of 855,711 that had already set a midterm county record. Harris County simply had far more registered progressive voters this election than in previous elections: the county added more than 120,000 voters to its rolls from 2016 and a net total of more than 260,000 from the previous midterm, the largest raw increase among Texas’ 254 counties.

With victories down the ballot, Harris County — the biggest battleground in ruby red Texas with a population larger than 25 other states — turned solidly blue. Democrats swept up seats in Congress and every open seat on the District bench. In District 7, an area that has been solidly Republican, Lizzie Pannill Fletcher won against U.S. Rep. John Culberson with 52.3 percent of the vote. District 29 celebrated their victory for Sylvia Garcia, the first Latina woman from Texas elected to Congress- who won 75.1 percent of the vote and replaced Rep. Gene Green. On the judicial front, Harris County voters voted out all 23 of the seats on the district bench that were up for grabs, including the 15 Republican misdemeanor judges.
