According to early voting results, Democrat incumbent Lloyd Doggett is leading the race for the U.S. House of Representatives District 35 seat with 29,474 votes, or 65.15 percent. Republican challenger Susan Narvaiz has received 14,229 votes, or 31.45 percent. Libertarian Cory Bruner has received 956 votes, or 2.11 percent, and Green Party candidate Kat Swift has received 581 votes, or 1.28 percent.

Doggett has said he wants to focus on improving opportunity through tuition reimbursement, what he called "equal pay for equal work" and other programs.

Narvaiz, a former mayor of San Marcos, said she believes Central Texas is under-represented in Washington. If elected, Narvaiz said she will work to ease regulations that she believes have "stymied" the oil and gas industry in Texas.

If re-elected, Doggett will serve a two-year term.
