Crenshaw Falls to Steve Toth in Texas GOP Primary
TL;DR Summary
In a tight Texas GOP primary for the 2nd District, Rep. Dan Crenshaw lost to hard‑line state Rep. Steve Toth, a result framed as a rebuke of Crenshaw’s occasional breaks with Republicans and his stance on the 2020 election amid strong Trump loyalty in a solidly Republican Houston-area district. Trump did not endorse either candidate, but backers including Ted Cruz and Tucker Carlson helped Toth, highlighting the party’s hard-right drift and the vulnerability of incumbents who cross Trump-era lines.
