Incumbent Republican Pete Sessions faces Democrat Casey Shepard in the November 2026 general election for Texas’s 17th congressional district, anchored around Waco. The seat carries a strong Republican tilt, reflected in its R+14 Cook Partisan Voting Index and double-digit margins for Republican presidential and Senate candidates in 2024. Sessions advanced unopposed through the March primary, while Shepard emerged from a contested Democratic primary and May runoff. Forecasters from the Cook Political Report, Sabato’s Crystal Ball, and others rate the race Solid or Safe Republican, aligning with trader consensus favoring the GOP nominee. The commanding position stems from the district’s partisan makeup, incumbency, and absence of competitive polling or recent disruptive events. Late-breaking developments such as a national Democratic surge, major scandal, or unforeseen candidate withdrawal could narrow the gap, though none appear imminent ahead of the November ballot.
