Menefee edges Green in Texas 18 runoff, eyes November showdown
U.S. Rep. Christian Menefee defeated U.S. Rep. Al Green in the Democratic primary runoff for Texas’ newly redrawn 18th District, winning about 70% of the vote in Harris County as Fort Bend voting delays briefly slowed the process. Menefee, who won a January special election to fill the seat, will face Republican Ronald Whitfield in November, a result seen as a potential Democratic bellwether amid ongoing redistricting.
