Why a lone House Republican is fighting a primary in Texas without Trump's backing
President Donald Trump has endorsed every House Republican running for re-election in the first primaries of 2026 on March 3 — except one: Rep. Dan Crenshaw.
And unlike dozens of other GOP lawmakers in Arkansas, North Carolina and Texas who have received Trump’s blessing, Crenshaw is actually facing a competitive primary. Texas state Rep. Steve Toth is arguing that Crenshaw’s foreign policy and immigration positions are out of step with the “Make America Great Again” wing of the party.
Crenshaw has responded forcefully to the challenge. The four-term congressman significantly outraised Toth and is outspending him on the airwaves, according to the ad-tracking firm AdImpact, running TV spots that emphasize how “Crenshaw stands with Trump.”
Texas congressional races heating up

Heated primary goes to the polls in Congressional District 2
MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Texas (KTRK) — Every Texas seat in Congress is on the ballot when early voting begins Tuesday.
Some incumbents have easy paths to the nomination. Others face challenges from within their own party.
Among them is Dan Crenshaw, a Republican representing the 2nd Congressional District. Crenshaw is facing challenges from three other republicans. One of them is State Representative Steve Toth, who used to support Crenshaw.
Crenshaw has represented Texas's 2nd Congressional District since he was elected in 2018. He's now seeking a fifth term in office.
"This re-election's about getting things done," Crenshaw told ABC13. "It's about results, it's not about trendy narratives online that aren't even true."
