TL;DR

Former Rep. Colin Allred defeated Rep. Julie Johnson in a runoff for Texas’ newly drawn 33rd District, a deep-blue Dallas-area seat, positioning him for a likely return to Congress. Allred leveraged his name ID and endorsements, while attacking Johnson over stock trades and corporate PAC money; Johnson, the first openly LGBTQ+ elected in a Southern state, faced a race that mirrored March’s Senate-primary tensions and underscored the district’s Democratic tilt.
