Colin Allred, a former U.S. representative, has announced his bid to run in the Democratic primary for the 2026 Senate elections. His goal is to unseat incumbent Republican Senator John Cornyn, who has served since 2002. Allred plans a statewide campaign, touring Texas extensively, and aims to leverage his name recognition and past electoral success, which included outperforming Kamala Harris in the 2024 election. Preliminary polls suggest potential instability in the Republican ranks could enhance Allred's candidacy as Democrats seek to reclaim power in Texas.
Allred's campaign aims to unseat John Cornyn and break the Republican hold on Texas Senate seats, utilizing support from his previous electoral performances and strong community connections.
In the packed community center in Houston, Allred emphasized his determination not to give up, resonating with supporters eager to revitalize Democratic representation in Texas.
