On August 18, the Texas Republican Party united behind Shelley Sekula-Gibbs for US House, 22nd district. She will be a write-in candidate. The only candidates on the ballot are a Democrat and a Libertarian. It appears that Texas has never elected a write-in candidate to any state office, and it is clear that Texas has never elected a write-in candidate to any federal office. On the other hand, the district is strongly Republican.
