Can Texas House District 54 flip from Republican to Democrat? Some say yes

For many years, the person who represents the Killeen area in the Texas House of Representatives has been a Republican. However, some Democrats, locally and around the state, say this is the year that could change.

The Texas House of Representatives is back up for grabs again in November as the currently red House could be flipped to blue if enough seats are won by Democrats.

One House seat that could flip after the Nov. 3 election is House District 54, which includes Killeen, southern Bell County and all of Lampasas County.

Historically, Republicans have won the seat, but their margin of victory has dwindled in recent years.....

Fast forward to 2020, and now Brad Buckley, R-Salado, is running for reelection. And this time, he has a Democrat opponent — Likeithia “Keke” Williams, D-Harker Heights — who seems to be running an aggressive campaign, including a billboard on Interstate 14 and with support from the Bell County Democratic. Party.
