The first draft of the redrawn congressional map for Texas would put Grimes County into a new district, and split Brazos County.

Under the newest drawing, Grimes County would fall into CD-10, served by Michael McCaul of Austin. 70 percent of Brazos County’s population would fall into CD-10 as well. The proposed CD-10 would include all of College Station, portions of Bryan that include the RELLIS campus, the health science center, and south of Villa Maria and Briarcrest, with the exception of Bryan’s Midtown District. CD-10 would also include Wixon Valley and Kurten.

McCaul’s district would also tally Madison, and the northern half of Walker County, including the City of Huntsville.

CD-17, represented by Pete Sessions of Waco, gets the rest of Bryan along with Benchley and Mumford. Sessions district would also include Robertson, Milam, and Leon counties, and stretch to the east as far as Nacogdoches County.

McCaul and Sessions would be two of the four congress members sharing Travis County.
