Right now, your current U.S. Representative for TX-35 is Greg Casar (D) — he's held the seat since 2023, and he's still serving out this term under the old district boundaries.

However, big changes are coming: Texas redrew its congressional maps for the 2026 election cycle, and Casar decided to run in the newly drawn 37th district (Austin-centric) instead of TX-35. The new, redrawn TX-35 now covers parts of San Antonio and Guadalupe, Wilson, and Karnes counties, and is now a more Republican-leaning, Hispanic-majority district.

The general election for the new TX-35 seat happens November 3, 2026, with these nominees after the May runoffs:

Carlos De La Cruz (R) — an Air Force veteran, secured the Republican nomination over John Lujan 
KSAT
Johnny Garcia (D) — defeated Maureen Galindo in the Democratic runoff, after a career as a Bexar County Sheriff's Office spokesperson 
KSAT

Whoever wins in November will be sworn in as the new TX-35 representative when the next Congress convenes in January 2027.
