March 3 Republican primary

See also: Texas' 2nd Congressional District election, 2026 (March 3 Republican primary)

Ballotpedia identified the March 3, 2026, Republican primary as a battleground primary. For more on the Republican primary, click here. For more on the Democratic primary, click here.

Incumbent Daniel Crenshaw (R), Steve Toth (R), and four others are running in the Republican primary for Texas' 2nd Congressional District on March 3, 2026. The filing deadline is December 8, 2025. As of November 2025, Crenshaw and Toth led in fundraising and local media attention.

The Texas Tribune's Gabby Birenbaum described Toth as "aligned with the rightmost faction of the Texas Legislature...by far the best-known primary opponent Crenshaw has faced in his career." Jameson Ellis (R) challenged Crenshaw in the 2022 and 2024 primaries, losing to Crenshaw 75%–17% in 2022 and 60%–40% in 2024.

FOX News' Peter Pinedo says Crenshaw has "emerged as a prominent Republican lawmaker and outspoken conservative voice but has also taken criticism from some on the right, such as Toth, who have accused him of being too establishment." Referencing Crenshaw's past statements supporting aid to Ukraine and criticizing some Republicans, Toth said he was running because the district "deserve[s] an unwavering conservative who will fight for our convictions and never bend the knee to the radical left." A Crenshaw spokesman said Crenshaw "has been fighting — and winning — to secure the border, fight against radical transgender ideology and deliver crucial flood mitigation to Texas' 2nd Congressional District since he's been in office."

Crenshaw was elected to the House in 2018. A veteran of the U.S. Navy, Crenshaw says he stands for "common sense policies that ensure our nation’s prosperity and security, represent our Foundational values, and give Texans a reason to once again be proud of their leaders." Crenshaw says he is "running for re-election because Texas isn't done fighting and neither am I."

Toth was elected to the Texas House of Representatives in 2012. He ran unsuccessfully for state Senate in 2014 and U.S. House in 2016 before being re-elected to the state House in 2018. Toth says he is running because Crenshaw "ran as a conservative but has done nothing except act like the newest version of Liz Cheney in Congress."

Also running in the primary are Martin Etwop (R), T.C. Manning (R), Nicholas Plumb (R), and Ava Zolari (R).

If no candidate receives more than 50% of the vote, the top two finishers will advance to a runoff on May 26.

Daniel Crenshaw

Key Messages

The following key messages were curated by Ballotpedia staff. For more on how we identify key messages, click here.

---

Crenshaw said he was inspired to serve in Congress by the time he spent in the Navy SEALs, with his campaign website saying he "believes in service before self and understands that there is no higher calling than service to the American people...the integrity, leadership, vision, and tenacity he learned in the SEAL teams are present every day in his fight for common-sense solutions in Congress."

---

Crenshaw said the 2026 midterms were a turning point for the nation: "I've been in tough fights before, but the one we're in now will decide the future of our country. President Trump needs reinforcements, now more than ever. That's why I keep doing this job. It's about mission, actions, solutions. It's about persuading the public that our agenda is the right one, and we are finally moving in the right direction."

---

Crenshaw said he had demonstrated leadership on issues that are important to the district including energy policy and Hurricane Harvey recovery. His campaign website said: "As a 6th generation Texan and Houstonian, Dan has a deep love for his country and state."

Party: Republican Party

Incumbent: No

Political Office: None

Submitted Biography:  "I was adopted at four by parents born in the Great Depression. We lived in a trailer park on the edge of small-town Texas, where every dollar was stretched and every value was earned. My mom patched my jeans from the inside, my dad preached on Sundays, and I learned that discipline mattered more than image. At eighteen, I enlisted in the Army. Later, I served in the Navy JAG Corps, deploying to Iraq and working defense at Guantanamo Bay. I’ve stood in rooms most politicians can’t pronounce, let alone endure. After the military, I rebuilt from scratch, rising through Walmart and Amazon, where I ran billion-dollar operations, launched sites, exposed fraud, and stood alone when it counted. I’ve led from the front in boardrooms and breakrooms, not just campaign rallies. I wasn’t groomed for this seat. I built the tools to take it. And I’m not running because I need a title. I’m running because I’ve lived the consequences of bad leadership. Our government operates like a broken ops floor: bloated, misaligned, and serving insiders instead of outcomes. I know how to fix broken systems. That’s exactly what I intend to do."

---

Key Messages

To read this candidate's full survey responses, click here.

---

I’ve run billion-dollar operations, launched fulfillment centers, and cleaned up the messes weak leaders left behind. I didn’t inherit power. I earned trust by fixing broken systems. I’ve led teams in war zones and warehouses, in courtrooms and crisis. Now I’m watching Congress operate like a bloated ops floor: detached, inefficient, and serving itself. I’m not running to be liked. I’m running to deliver. I bring real-world execution to a place that runs on excuses. If we want results, we need leaders who know how to get their hands dirty, call the bluff, and make the floor work again.

---

I’m not a polished politician. I’m a product of grit, service, and hard truth. I was raised by Depression-era parents, served in Iraq and Guantanamo, and worked my way from retail trainee to corporate fixer. I’ve seen how policy failure hits real families, and I’ve stood alone when integrity demanded it. When I say I’m running for working Americans, I mean the ones who don’t have lobbyists or golden parachutes - the ones who get up early, stay late, and still get priced out of the future. I’ve lived their story. I’ve fought their fights. I’ll take that truth to Washington.

---

I’ve seen firsthand how quiet displacement is reshaping our economy, how foreign labor programs, corporate loopholes, and captured leadership hollow out opportunity. I’ve fought that machine from the inside. We need a workforce policy built for American families - not spreadsheets. I’ll defend labor, protect veterans, and cut through the false choice between business and people. You shouldn’t need a master’s degree or visa to earn a life with dignity. If we want a future worth inheriting, we need leaders who still believe in the American worker and aren’t afraid to fight for them.

Steve Toth

Party: Republican Party

Incumbent: No

Political Office: 

• Texas House of Representatives (2013–2015, Assumed office: 2019)

Biography:  As of the 2026 elections, Toth was an ordained pastor and the owner of a residential pool service company. Toth's earlier professional experience includes work in sales, marketing, and business development for businesses including Johnson & Johnson, Apple Orthodontix, and Harris Interactive.

---

Key Messages

The following key messages were curated by Ballotpedia staff. For more on how we identify key messages, click here.

---

Toth said his background as a pastor and business owner meant that he understood "what’s at stake when Republicans cede ground to the progressive left and lose sight of our strong conservative values. Family, faith, and freedom are the cornerstones of America."

---

Toth said his record in the state legislature demonstrated his commitment to conservative principles, with his campaign website saying he "has consistently been ranked as one of the most conservative legislators in the Texas House while delivering real wins for Texans...Steve has always fought for Texas families and will never back down from doing what is right."

---

Toth said he had a record of having "stood against liberal policies, even when they came from within his own party, serving as a voice for conservatives across the state," and that he had opposed the "Democrats and Moderate Republicans [who] were trying to tear down Trump’s wall."
