      Here’s a comparison of Barack Obama’s, Hillary Clinton’s, and Joe Biden’s election results in Texas:

      Election Year Democratic Candidate Vote Percentage Republican Candidate Vote Percentage Margin
      2012 Barack Obama 41.4% Mitt Romney 57.2% 15.8%
      2016 Hillary Clinton 43.2% Donald Trump 52.2% 9.0%
      2020 Joe Biden 46.5% Donald Trump 52.1% 5.6%
