Updated with additional election results.
Matt Shaheen is headed to a fourth term after Sharon Hirsch conceded Wednesday. Shaheen received 1,029 more votes over Hirsch.
And in state House District 108, the Democratic challenger also conceded Wednesday morning after a close race.
The race between state Rep. Morgan Meyer and challenger Joanna Cattanach was too close to call late into the night but as more votes were tallied Wednesday morning, Cattanach congratulated Meyer on his win.
The race was one of several tight races for state House seats in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
Democrats were nine seats short of the majority in the 150-member Texas House going into Election Day, and the minority party set its sights on a handful of North Texas races.
State Reps. Morgan Meyer, Jeff Leach and Matt Shaheen held leads over their Democratic challengers early Wednesday morning.
State Rep. Angie Chen Button was also slightly ahead of her Democratic challenger, Brandy K. Chambers, as of early Wednesday.
Meyer, Shaheen and Button each faced challengers they narrowly defeated in 2018.
Gov. Greg Abbott has visited the Dallas-Fort Worth area in the weeks leading up to the election to block walk with some state House representatives defending their seats.
And now that straight-ticket voting has been eliminated in Texas, both parties have encouraged voters to cast votes in down-ballot races and not just the presidential or U.S. Senate race.
Here's a look at the D-FW state House races:
District 108: Morgan Meyer v. Joanna Cattanach
State Rep. Morgan Meyer is in a bid to maintain his seat against Democratic candidate Joanna Cattanach, who he narrowly defeated in 2018. Cattanach lost in 2018 by just 220 votes.
District 108 includes all of Highland Park and University Park and parts of east Dallas. Meyer has been in office since 2015. Libertarian candidate Ed Rankin is also running for the seat.
District 112: Angie Chen Button v. Brandy K. Chambers
State Rep. Angie Chen Button took office in 2009. Democrat Brandy K. Chambers is running again after she was narrowly defeated in 2018. Button won the seat with 51% of the votes in the last election.
District 112 includes part of Garland, Richardson, Rowlett and Sachse in Dallas County. Libertarian Shane D. Newsom is also running for the seat.
District 66: Matt Shaheen v. Sharon Hirsch
Republican Matt Shaheen is the third-term incumbent. He faces Democratic challenger Sharon Hirsch, who also ran for the seat in 2018. Shaheen eked out a win with 50.3% of the votes, beating Hirsch by 391 votes. It appears he'll have a repeat in 2020 with about a 1,000-vote lead.
District 66 includes part of Dallas and Plano in Collin County. Libertarian Shawn Jones is also running.
District 67: Jeff Leach v. Lorenzo Sanchez
Republican Jeff Leach is seeking a fifth term. Leach won in 2018 with 51.1% of the votes. It appears he will win again with about 52% of the vote against Democrat Lorenzo Sanchez, a real estate agent. Sanchez won the Democratic candidacy in the July runoff. District 67 includes parts of Allen, Plano and Richardson in Collin County.
District 97: Craig Goldman v. Elizabeth Beck.
State Rep. Craig Goldman looks like he will win re-election with 53% of the vote early Wednesday morning. He has been in office since 2012. Goldman also won re-election in 2018 with 53.2% of the vote. He faced Democratic challenger Elizabeth Beck and Libertarian challenger Rod Wingo, who also ran in 2018.
District 97 includes Benbrook and part of Fort Worth. Abbott was recently in Fort Worth to block walk with Goldman.
District 93: Matt Krause v. Lydia Bean
State Rep. Matt Krause has been re-elected for a fifth term. He won in 2018 with 53.9% of the vote. Democrat Lydia Bean is running against him. District 93 includes parts of Arlington, Fort Worth, Haltom City and Haslet.
