Senator Ted Cruz already has one challenger for his U.S. Senate seat in 2024. Dallas-area Congressman Colin Allred announced on Wednesday that he would run for the U.S. Senate in 2024. Allred was first elected to Congress in 2018 and has been viewed as a "rising star" in the Democrat Party.

Allred announced in a 3 minute long video that he was running and took shots at Cruz for not being likable and his trip to Cancun during the winter storm that knocked out power for millions of Texans.

As the Texas Tribune points out, Allred's campaign will be an uphill battle in 2024 as not only will Cruz be on the ballot, but so will President Joe Biden.
