Texas Republican Trever Nehls is projected to win the Lone Star State's 22nd District and to replace his twin brother, Rep. Troy Nehls (R-Texas), in the U.S. House, according to The Hill's report on the projection. The projection is based on preliminary results from Decision Desk HQ (DDHQ), the report said.

According to The Hill, Trever Nehls won the district's Republican primary "by a landslide." The summary of the report names his Democratic opponent as Marquette Greene-Scott, but the excerpt available cuts off before it describes the contest between them.

The Hill's summary does not report vote totals or the margin in the race. It also does not include a statement from either candidate. Because the call rests on preliminary returns, the report treats it as a projection rather than a final outcome.

The Hill's story was written by Ryan Mancini and published on November 4, 2026. Its summary describes Troy Nehls as a Republican representing Texas in the House, and its headline frames the race as one in which Trever would replace his brother in that seat.

No other outlet's reporting on the race was available for this story, so the account here rests on that single report.
