The 33rd congressional district of Texas is a new district created during the recent redistricting cycle as a result of the 2010 Census. It will hold an election for the U.S. House of Representatives on November 6, 2012.

The primary elections will be held on May 29, 2012. Should a runoff occur, the Primary Runoff Election will take place on July 31, 2012.

Candidates wishing to run were required to file by the signature filing deadline of December 19, 2011.

* Redistricting note: Due to legal turmoil in the redistricting process, filing deadlines have changed twice and primary dates have changed once. The original filing deadline was December 12th.[1] That deadline was first moved to December 15th and then December 19th by a federal court due to delays caused by redistricting legal challenges. When a final map was issued, the December 19th deadline was once again moved to March 9 to allow candidates more time to file in light of the delays and map ambiguities. The primary date was first moved from March 6 to April 3, 2012 before finally settling on May 29.[2]
