What changed for 2026

Texas redrew its congressional map in 2025. For District 5 that means:

  • 204 precincts → 222 (+18)
  • 6 counties → 5 — the county organizations this district works with.

No longer in this district:

  • Upshur County — held 6 precincts here in 2024
  • Wood County — held 14 precincts here in 2024

New to this district:

  • Anderson County — 22 precincts

Still here, but a different share:

  • Dallas County — 99 precincts → 115 (+16)

A county can stay in the district while the number of its precincts here changes substantially — which a simple list of counties would not show.

Most precincts kept their exact 2024 boundaries even where the district changed — the State House, Senate and Board of Education maps were not redrawn, so this is the congressional redraw rather than counties renumbering precincts. How this was measured.
