No Democrat has won a statewide election in Texas since the 1990s, and I doubt the streak will be broken in 2022. The president is very unpopular in Texas and Democrats' support with Hispanics is diminishing, which greatly impacts the state's border areas.
I think it will take the backdrop of a depressed economy or prolonged military conflict during a future Republican administration for Texas to finally support a Democrat for any office on the ballot - and that will be a Democrat who runs an outstanding campaign and has a compelling story and platform to offer the voters.
