Texas's 29th district is drawn Hispanic and elects Gene Green
1992
Eastern Harris County, Texas
The legislature drew this seat after the 1990 census to give the ship channel towns a Hispanic majority district. Gene Green, an Anglo state legislator, won the first election in 1992 and held it for thirteen terms, turning back Hispanic primary challengers each time. Sylvia Garcia finally won the seat in 2018, twenty six years after it was drawn for that purpose.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
