Texas's 36th congressional district is a district that was created as a result of the 2010 census.^[4] The first candidates ran in the 2012 House elections for a seat in the 113th United States Congress.^[5] Steve Stockman won the general election, and represented the new district. On December 9, 2013, Stockman announced that he would not seek reelection in 2014, and would instead challenge incumbent John Cornyn in the Republican senatorial primary, and was succeeded in the U.S. House by Brian Babin.

Texas's 36th congressional district is located in southeast Texas and includes all of Chambers, Hardin, Jasper, Liberty, Newton, and Tyler counties, plus portions of southeastern Harris County and northwestern Jefferson County.^[6] The Johnson Space Center is within the district. Having only recently been established, the 36th district is one of only two districts in Texas (the other being the 31st district) that has never been represented by a member of the Democratic Party.
