Texas' 38th Congressional District, with a Cook Partisan Voting Index of R+10 and Donald Trump carrying it 60.5%-37.5% in 2024, drives trader consensus to an 81.5% implied probability for a Republican hold in the open-seat race after Rep. Wesley Hunt's U.S. Senate bid. Melissa McDonough secured the Democratic nomination unopposed in the March 3 primary after losing 63%-37% to Hunt in 2024, while Republicans head to a May 26 primary runoff between Trump-endorsed mortgage banker Jon Bonck and Shelly deZevallos. Absent general election polls or shifts, Solid Republican ratings from Cook Political Report and historical GOP margins by 25+ points sustain the lopsided odds ahead of the November 3 contest.
