The2012 United States Senate election in Texas was held on November 6, 2012, along with other elections to theUnited States Senate theUnited States House of Representatives in additional states. IncumbentRepublican U.S. senatorKay Bailey Hutchison decided to retire instead of running for reelection to a fourth full term. This was the first open election for this seat since1957.[a]

Libertarian John Jay Myers was elected by nomination at the Texas Libertarian Party State Convention on June 8, 2012. After the first round of primary voting on May 29, 2012, a runoff was held on July 31, 2012, for both theDemocratic Party andRepublican Party. Former state representativePaul Sadler and former state solicitor generalTed Cruz respectively won the Democratic and Republican runoffs; Cruz won the general election by a wide margin.

Background

[edit]

In an interview withTexas Monthly published in December 2007, incumbent U.S. senatorKay Bailey Hutchison stated that she would not seek reelection and might also resign from the Senate as early as 2009 to run forGovernor of Texas.[2] After the2008 elections, Hutchison formed an exploratory committee to run for the governorship in2010.[3] State Republican Party ChairmanCathie Adams later called upon Hutchison to clarify when she would vacate the Senate so that other Republican candidates could make preparations to run.[4]

On December 4, 2008, Hutchison set up an exploratory committee, setting up a primary battle with incumbent Republican governorRick Perry.[5] Fellow Texas U.S. senator andNational Republican Senatorial Committee ChairmanJohn Cornyn tried to convince Hutchison to stay in the Senate, for fear of losing the seat to the Democrats.[6] On January 15, 2009, Hutchison transferred nearly all the money, approximately $8 million, from her federal campaign account to her gubernatorial exploratory committee.[7] On November 13, 2009, Hutchison announced that she would not resign from the Senate seat until after the primary on March 2, 2010.[8]

Hutchison lost the gubernatorial primary to Perry and on March 31, 2010, she announced her intention to serve out her third term.[9] On January 13, 2011, after some discussion about whether she would change her mind,[10] Hutchison announced she would not seek re-election in 2012.[11]

Requirements for nomination

[edit]

Texas requires a majority for nomination, as well as a second round runoff between the two candidates with the two highest pluralities if none win a majority on the first round.[12] No candidate won a majority in either 2012 major party first round primary, so both parties had a runoff on July 31, 2012.
