TX-23 GOP Primary: Gonzales Faces Herrera, Rubio Clash
February 16, 2026·8 days ago·via El Paso Matters
Incumbent Rep. Tony Gonzales (R) seeks a fourth term in Texas' 23rd Congressional District, facing firebrand challenger Brandon Herrera and rancher Susan Storey Rubio in the March 3, 2026 Republican primary. This rematch follows Gonzales' razor-thin 2024 runoff win over Herrera by under 400 votes, spotlighting a battle between the Navy vet's centrist record- funding 100+ border police, screwworm facilities, and $4.7B in veteran healthcare- and Herrera's Trump-loyal, anti-establishment push.
