TX-33: Allred leads Johnson in race for new North Texas congressional seat

Former U.S. Rep. Colin Allred and Rep. Julie Johnson appear headed to a May runoff.

Allred had a wide margin in early voting totals posted Tuesday, but did not cross the threshold necessary to win Tuesday’s Democratic primary outright.

Johnson and Allred are competing for the chance to represent the new 33rd Congressional District after Texas Republicans redrew the North Texas seat as part of their effort to help the GOP maintain congressional control.

The seat sits entirely inside Dallas County. The county had not yet released in-person voting results from Tuesday as of 11:30 p.m. The county’s primary was dogged by chaos that ended in an order from the state Supreme Court to separate votes cast by people who arrived after 7 p.m. from the total.
