周二,得克萨斯州的重划选区行动导致一名长期担任议员的民主党现任议员落选,在休斯顿地区的决选投票中,克里斯琴·梅尼菲击败了阿尔·格林,这场选举迫使两名现任众议院民主党人同台竞争。
众议院议员阿尔·格林是国会中言辞最激烈的特朗普反对者之一,在重划选区打乱休斯顿地区国会选区界线后,他于周二的民主党决选中输给了来自得州的同僚众议员克里斯琴·梅尼菲。
这场角逐得克萨斯州民主党稳固掌控的第18国会选区的选举,是一场现任议员之间的民主党内战,格林和梅尼菲两人都试图在重划选区改变休斯顿周边国会选区界线后保住自己在国会的席位。
根据得州法律规定,如果初选期间没有候选人获得多数选票,选举将进入决选阶段。在3月初的初选中,梅尼菲获得了46%的选票,格林获得了44.2%的支持率。

格林一直是国会中对唐纳德·特朗普最严厉的批评者之一,在特朗普的两届任期内,他曾多次发起弹劾指控。格林还曾多次因在演讲中起身抗议,被请出特朗普的国情咨文演讲现场。
3月初的初选结果出炉后,福克斯新闻数字频道在国会山采访了格林,这位资深议员指出,加密行业为反对他的竞选活动花费了150万美元,这是他的竞选形势胶着的主要原因。
与此同时,格林批评梅尼菲所谓的从政经验不足,以及在担任律师后的国会早期职业生涯中未能参与投票。

梅尼菲是华盛顿政坛的新面孔,他参选时提出将以新面孔进入国会,对抗特朗普和共和党人。
梅尼菲在去年3月的个人网站发文称:“梅尼菲曾是一名商业诉讼律师,出身军人家庭,此前曾被视为潜在的全州范围竞选候选人。他转而参选国会的决定,凸显了许多民主党人都承认的一个现实:短期内民主党打破共和党对得州政坛掌控的前景看起来十分渺茫。”

梅尼菲将在11月的大选中对阵共和党人罗纳德·惠特菲尔德,不过在这个由民主党稳固掌控的休斯顿地区选区,梅尼菲被普遍看好。

Al Green has been a longtime critic of President Trump, repeatedly interrupting his State of the Union speeches
By Alec Schemmel Fox News
Rep. Al Green, D-Texas, said shortly after being removed from President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address that he would “do it again,” and that at some point, “You have to confront him face-to-face.”

Texas redistricting claimed a longtime Democratic incumbent Tuesday, as Rep. Christian Menefee defeated Rep. Al Green in a Houston-area runoff that forced two sitting House Democrats into the same race.
Rep. Al Green, one of Congress’ most vocal Trump antagonists, lost his Democratic runoff Tuesday to fellow Texas Rep. Christian Menefee after redistricting scrambled Houston-area congressional lines.
The race for Texas’ solidly Democratic 18th Congressional District was an incumbent-on-incumbent Democratic clash, with Green and Menefee both trying to preserve their places in Congress after redistricting altered the congressional districts around Houston.
In Texas, it is mandated by law that if no candidate has captured a majority of the vote during a primary, the race will head to a runoff election. Menefee received 46% of votes and Green 44.2% following the early-March primary.

Green has been among President Donald Trump’s fiercest critics in Congress, pursuing impeachment charges on multiple occasions against him during both of Trump’s terms. Green has been kicked out of Trump’s State of the Union addresses multiple times as well for standing up and protesting amid the speech.
Following the close March primary, Fox News Digital caught up with Green on Capitol Hill, during which the longtime congressman cited $1.5 million in spending against his campaign by the crypto-industry as a major driver behind the closeness of his race.
At the same time, Green slammed Menefee, over his alleged lack of experience and failure to show up for votes early in his congressional career following his tenure as an attorney.

Meneffee is a fresher face in Washington who ran on bringing a new face to Congress to combat Trump and Republicans.
“A former commercial litigation lawyer from a military family, Mr. Menefee had been mentioned as a potential statewide candidate. His decision to run for Congress instead underscored what many Democrats have acknowledged: that the prospects for breaking the Republican hold on state politics in Texas appeared dim for Democrats in the short term,” Menefee said in a post to his website last March.

Menefee will take on Republican Ronald Whitfield in the November general election, though Menefee is strongly favored in the heavily-Democratic Houston-area district.
