The Decision Desk Headquarters predicts that the Democratic Party will win the Texas federal Senate seat

According to the election forecasting agency Decision Desk Headquarters (DDHQ), Democrat James Talarico is predicted to win the federal Senate seat in Texas, defeating Republican Ken Paxton. This marks the first significant victory for the Democrats in Texas since 1988.

This result brings the Democrats closer to regaining a majority in the Senate. The Democrats need a net gain of 4 seats to retake the Senate majority, and according to U.S. media predictions, the Democrats have flipped and won in the Senate elections in North Carolina and South Carolina.
