Anchored in the Permian Basin and West Texas ranchlands, TX-11 recorded an R+62.8 presidential margin in 2024, making it among the most reliably one-sided congressional districts in the country.

The unraveling was not abrupt. The Democratic margin in Texas 11th Congressional District peaked at eighty-one points in 1932; it narrowed steadily over the late twentieth century. The 1968 election delivered the district to the Republican party for the first time in many years, by a margin of twelve points. By 2024, the margin had widened further.

The economic and demographic context is severe. The median household income of $74,785 is among the lowest at this geographic scale; 13% of residents live below the federal poverty line.
