Longtime Democratic Congressman Al Green lost to Cristian Menefee in the runoff election for the House of Representatives in Texas's 9th Congressional District, marking another victory for the Trump camp in the U.S. state elections. The loss ends Green's political career in the U.S. Congress after nearly two decades in office. Democratic candidate Maureen Galindo, who declared she would turn the Karnes detention facility into 'a prison for American Zionists,' also lost in the runoff. She ran in Texas's 35th District against Johnny Garcia.
