Texas Baptists Lost No Seats In Congress

Skip to the Article

According to Baptist Press, only one Southern Baptist lost his seat in Congress this cycle. Of course, Southern Baptists aren’t in every state (evidently).

But, Texas managed to keep all of its Baptists in Congress (and we now know their churches to boot):

Rep. Louie Gohmert, R., First District, seeking second term, Green Acres BC, Tyler, defeated Roger Owen, D., and Donald Perkison, L., 104,080-46,290-2,667, 68-30-2 percent.

Rep. Mike Conaway, R., 11th District, seeking second term, First BC, Midland, won without opposition.

Rep. Randy Neugebauer, R., 19th District, seeking third term, First BC, Lubbock, defeated Robert Ricketts, D., and Fred Jones, L., 92,811-40,853-3,300, 68-30-2 percent.
