Texas’s heavily Democratic 18th Congressional District has an empty seat. State law gives Greg Abbott the power to delay the election to fill it.

Vote his dumb ass out. Abbott does not represent Texans nor has he ever stood for anyone’s interests but his own.
Sadly that’s nearly impossible due to gerrymandering. For example, this is one of the districts in the state shaped to confine as many blue votes as possible to a single district: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas’s_35th_congressional_district
Governor is a statewide race, gerrymandering may discourage a certain amount of voting due to apathy, but it doesn’t really change how votes are counted.
