It’s been a rough day in Texas for the Tea Party, where incumbent Rep. Pete Sessions handily held off Tea Party rock star Katrina Pierson, and Sen. John Cornyn did the same with Rep. Steve Stockman.
AP has called Rep. Pete Sessions (R-Tex.) the winner over Katrina Pierson. She was backed by Freedomworks.
