The luck for third parties may change in TX. In the 28th congressional district there are two dems in a cut throat fight for the seat and one member of the constitution party. The reps did not run anyone. This district usually goes about 60% to 40% rat. But if the 2 dems can split the vote enough the Constitution party can win this seat. As I understand it they are making a full court press.

The CON party did a little better than than they usually do but anyone would have basically done as well as they would have received the disenchanted vote which is all the CON did, imo.
