San Antonio Republicans Grant Moody, Marc Whyte eyeing runs for new Texas congressional seat

Under the state's new map, the newly created 35th Congressional District would include parts of the Alamo City along with outlying rural counties that skew Republican. Pieced together from five existing districts, the newly minted region would have gone to Trump by a 10-point margin had it existed last November, the Tribune reports.
