  • The 2018 United States Senate election in Texas was held on November 6, 2018, along with other elections to the United States Senate and elections to the United States House of Representatives in additional states. Incumbent Republican U.S. Senator Ted Cruz ran successfully for re-election to a second term against Democratic candidate Beto O'Rourke. The primary for all parties was held on March 6, 2018, making it the first primary of the 2018 season. As Cruz and O'Rourke both won majorities in their primaries, they did not participate in the May 22 runoff primary that was held for some nominations in Texas. No Democrat has won a general election for statewide office in Texas since Bob Bullock was reelected as lieutenant governor in 1994, with election forecasters declaring it a safe Republican seat at the beginning of the 2018 cycle. However, O'Rourke gradually closed the gap, and leading up to the election, the race was considered unexpectedly competitive. On Election Day, Cruz defeated O'Rourke by a margin just short of 215,000 votes, or 2.6 percent; the race was the closest U.S. Senate race in Texas since 1978. (en)
  • Pemilihan umum Senat Amerika Serikat di Texas 2018 digelar pada tanggal 6 November 2018 untuk memilih anggota Senat Amerika Serikat yang akan mewakili negara bagian Texas. Pemilu ini diadakan serentak dengan pemilu senat, kongres, dan gubernur lainnya di Amerika Serikat. Dalam pemilu ini, Senator pertahana dari Partai Demokrat, Ted Cruz, terpilih untuk masa jabatan kedua dan berhasil mengalahkan penantang dari Partai Demokrat, Beto O'Rourke. Walaupun begitu, perbedaan suara di antara mereka berdua tidaklah besar. (in)
  • L'elezione per il rappresentante del Texas al Senato degli Stati Uniti si è tenuta il 6 novembre 2018, insieme alle altre elezioni per il Senato e per la Camera dei rappresentanti. Il senatore uscente era il Repubblicano Ted Cruz, che correva per un secondo mandato, ed è stato sfidato da Beto O'Rourke, membro della Camera dei Rappresentanti degli Stati Uniti e dal candidato del Partito Libertario Neak Dikeman. Le primarie per tutti i partiti si sono tenute il 6 marzo 2018, le prime primarie della stagione 2018. Dato che sia Cruz che O'Rourke hanno ottenuto entrambi la maggioranza nelle loro primarie, non hanno partecipato al ballottaggio del 22 maggio che si è tenuto nel Texas per alcune candidature. Nessun democratico vince un'elezione generale per una carica a livello statale in Texas dal 1994, e le predizioni annunciavano che il seggio sarebbe stato detenuto con falicità dai repubblicani. Tuttavia, nonostante il vantaggio iniziale di Cruz secondo i sondaggi, O'Rourke si è gradualmente avvicinato, e la competizione è stata considerata, in maniera anomala, addirittura competitiva prima della vittoria di Cruz. O'Rourke ha ottenuto 4 milioni di voti, superando il record di 3,87 milioni ottenuto da Hillary Clinton alle elezioni presidenziali del 2016, raggiungendo il numero maggiore di voti ottenuto da un candidato democratico in un'elezione nel Texas.
