Lyda Hinton was the final Democratic senator from Texas. She served from 1993 to 2009. Since then, Texas has been represented by Republican senators. The state is now in focus for a tight Senate race between Republican Ken Paxton and Democrat James Talarico. Polls indicate a close contest, but prediction markets suggest a different outcome. The election results for the Texas Senate race are expected to be announced soon.
