What year are you referring to ? He’s won for Congress on and off since the 1970s.

Before the recent redistricting.

It happened in 1996. Southwest of Houston spreading down the coast was the 14th district. Like his old district, it had previously been Democrat (a labor leaning district with a fairly substantial Hispanic presence), but had been in some upheaval from the post-Watergate period.

I was referring to this period.

Ofcourse most of Texas started going Republican, but it was still a competitive district before the recent redistricting.
