The Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee on Wednesday revealed it is expanding its target list of seats to flip in Texas’s Legislature. 

The DLCC, which operates as the Democratic Party’s campaign arm aiming to boost its presence in state legislatures across the country, announced it is adding a dozen more seats in the Texas state House to its list, in addition to the three districts it was already backing. The development comes as Democrats believe momentum is growing in their bid to grow their presence in the deep-red Lone Star state, in part due to state Rep. James Talarico’s performance in one of the country’s most closely watched Senate races.
