2020 United States House of Representatives elections in Texas
The 2020 United States House of Representatives elections in Texas were held on November 3, 2020, to elect the 36 U.S. representatives from the state of Texas, one from each of the state's 36 congressional districts. The elections coincided with the 2020 U.S. presidential election, as well as other elections to the House of Representatives, elections to the U.S. Senate and various state and local elections. Primaries were held on March 3 and run-offs were held on July 14.

During the election cycle, a number of House races were considered vulnerable by Democrats and polls. However, in the wake of the election, Republicans were able to retain control over all of those seats. Democratic-held 15th district also became unexpectedly competitive, with incumbent representative Vicente Gonzalez attaining a narrow win over the Republican challenger. Republican wins were attributed to President Donald Trump appearing on the ballot and his unexpectedly strong support from Latino voters.[1][2][3]
Ballot litigation
Some Green Party candidates were removed from the ballot due to a failure to pay filing fees. However, in September 2020, the Texas Supreme Court rejected a Republican attempt to remove 44 Libertarian Party candidates from the November 2020 general election ballot because they failed to pay filing fees. The court ruled that the Republicans had missed the state Election Code's deadline to raise such a challenge.[4]
