Lloyd Dogggett不会寻求连任 如果新的德克萨斯州地图 有利于共和党人 生效 Rep. Lloyd Doggett won't seek re-election if new Texas maps, favoring Republicans, take effect.

民主党众议员劳埃德·多格特 （Lloyd Doggett） 宣布，如果得克萨斯州的新国会地图获得批准，他将不会寻求连任，该地图可能会为共和党带来五个额外的席位。 Democratic Rep. Lloyd Doggett announced he will not seek re-election if Texas' new congressional maps, which could give Republicans five additional seats, are approved. 这些地图将会将民主党的Gregorio Casar同胞 安置在Doggett目前第37届国会区。 The maps would place fellow Democrat Gregorio Casar in Doggett's current 37th Congressional District. Doggget说,他宁愿与他认为的“特朗普暴政”抗争, 也不愿参与党派内部竞选, Doggett said he would prefer to fight against what he views as "Trump's tyranny" rather than engage in an intra-party race, though he did not clarify if he would retire or seek election elsewhere.
