What was the Texas congressional election 2002?

In the year 2002, the United States's House of Representatives elections held in Texas occurred on November 5, 2002 in order to decide the elected members of the state of Texas's delegation to the United States House of Representatives.

Hence, the state gained two seats in reapportionment, but

  • The divided Texas Legislature failed to redraw the state's congressional districts in line with this new apportionment so the task was sent to the Legislative Redistricting Board.
  • The federal court in Balderas v. State of Texas ordered the adoption of the lines used in the 2002 elections.
  • These elections occurred simultaneously with the United States Senate elections of 2002, the United States House elections in other states, and various state and local elections.
