Republicans now have 21 of the 32 seats in Congress (about 66%). Before is was 15 out of 32. With 57% voting Republican, Texas could have easily lined up 27 to 30 Republican seats in Congress. They bent over backwards not to affect any minority districts and to assure the same or improved minority representation in Congress. The only Democrats who lost their seats were old white men, like Martin Frost here in Dallas.
