Ryan Binkley (R), Darrell Day (R), and seven other candidates are running in the Republican primary for Texas' 32nd Congressional District on March 3, 2026. The filing deadline was December 8, 2025. As of January 2026, Binkley and Day led in polling and local media attention.[1][2]
The primary is taking place in the context of Texas' August 2025 redistricting. An Inside Elections analysis of the new district lines said the 32nd District "was previously a compact, Dallas-based seat with a Baseline of D+22. Now, it stretches from the Dallas suburbs deep into conservative East Texas, giving it a Baseline of R+17. Accordingly, we are changing our rating in this seat from Solid Democratic to Solid Republican."[3] Incumbent Julie Johnson (D) is running for re-election in the 33rd District.
Binkley is the chief executive of a mergers and acquisitions firm and the senior pastor of Create Church in Houston.[4] Binkley ran for the Republican presidential nomination in 2024. Binkley says he is running because "America needs a spiritual revival and America needs an economic revival and the time for that revival is now...we're going to win it back for President Trump."[5]
Day is a business owner. Day was the Republican nominee in 2024, losing to Julie Johnson (D) 61%–37% under the old district lines. Day says he is "the MAGA candidate, running to bring honesty, common sense and proven conservative leadership to Congress. I stand on the unshakable foundation of the Bible and the U.S. Constitution to deliver solid solutions for Texans."[6]
Also running in the primary are Paul Bondar (R), Aimee Carrasco (R), Gordon Heslop (R), Monty Montanez (R), James Ussery (R), Abteen Vaziri (R), and Jace Yarbrough (R).
If no candidate receives more than 50% of the vote, the top two finishers will advance to a runoff on May 26.

I am a proven CEO and owner of a group of four separate companies with over 400 employees across the nation. I will use my experience and track record to grow our economy through small businesses initiatives, reforming health care, codifying President Trump’s Executive Orders into law, strong border and immigration law enforcement, and ensuring that every legal vote is counted and protected."

Ryan Binkley (R)
Our immigration system is in shambles. Failed open-border policies have unleashed millions of illegal crossings, deadly fentanyl floods, and rampant human trafficking—costing precious lives, straining communities, and eroding sovereignty. But God calls us to wise stewardship: securing borders with resolve, reforming through accountability, and rejecting amnesty outright. Amnesty isn't compassion—it's a magnet for lawlessness, rewarding lawbreakers while betraying hardworking Americans. We must end it.Security first: Fully fund the border wall, cutting-edge tech like sensors and drones, and more Border Patrol agents. In Congress, I'll enshrine Trump's proven executive orders into law and end Sanctuary Cities for good.
As a pastor and father, I've seen how radical gender ideology confuses our children, leading to irreversible harms like transition surgeries and chemical castration through puberty blockers. Genesis 1:27 says that God created us male and female—it's a biological truth, not a choice. We must protect our kids from this agenda pushed in schools and clinics, denying them the innocence and guidance they need. In Congress, I'll fight to completely outlaw these procedures on minors, defend girls' sports from biological males, and restore parental rights over indoctrination. No more exploiting vulnerable youth for political gain. Let's unite in faith and common sense to safeguard our families and future generations.
Darrell Day (R)
Another move to boost our economy is aggressively pursuing an "all of the above" strategy of increasing domestic energy production, from increasing domestic oil production to building new nuclear and natural gas power generators. Boosting energy production will decrease energy prices, which will reverberate throughout the economy and lower inflation by lowering prices for all products.
Our obscene $37 trillion national debt endangers our country. We must aggressively cut federal spending, starting with U.S. Congress reviewing every government agency to cut every penny of spending which is unconstitutional or is counter to an AMERICA FIRST policy.

- Safe and Solid ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge and the race is not competitive.
- Likely ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge, but an upset is possible.
- Lean ratings indicate that one party has a small edge, but the race is competitive.[7]
- Toss-up ratings indicate that neither party has an advantage.
Race ratings are informed by a number of factors, including polling, candidate quality, and election result history in the race's district or state.[8][9][10]
