Roger Stone predicts that Republicans may actually win the House seat once held by Lyndon Baines Johnson in a Special Election caused by the criminal indictment of Democrat Congressman Henry Cuellar. Cuellar and his wife have been named in a 14-count indictment for bribery and corruption, and he is widely expected to resign his seat as part of plea bargain with the government.

Jay Furman, a former United States Navy Commander, ran a surprisingly strong race against Henry Cuellar in the 2024 election, losing by a mere 4%. This once-heavily-Democrat district is becoming more Republican as President Donald Trump has made deep inroads among Hispanic voters.

Stone, who wrote the New York Times Best Seller, "The Man Who Killed Kennedy: The Case Against LBJ," says that he believes national Republicans should target this seat in a Special Election if one is called, as well as in 2026.
