“Nearly two weeks after Election Day, Gina Ortiz Jones (D) on Monday conceded to incumbent Rep. Will Hurd (R-TX) in the race for Texas’ most competitive congressional district,” the Dallas Morning News reports.

Said Jones: “While we came up short this time, we ran a race of which we can be proud. I remain committed to serving my community and country, and I wish Will Hurd the courage to fight for TX-23 in the way in which our district deserves.”
