Following the 2012 State Senate elections, the Republicans maintained effective control of the Senate with nineteen members to the Democrats' twelve. As of 2020, this is the last time Republicans have gained seats in the senate in a regularly scheduled election. To claim control of the chamber from Republicans, the Democrats needed to gain four seats. While the GOP's statewide margin of victory for this class of Senators fell 4.3 percentage points compared to that of the 2012 elections,Texas holds elections for all Senate seats in years ending in 2. In 2012, for this particular class of Senators, the Republicans and Democrats won 67.40% and 29.69% of the vote, respectively. nearly all of the decrease was due to greater support for third-party candidates; the Democrats' vote share remained practically the same. In the end, the Republicans flipped one Democrat-held seat, winning twelve out of the fifteen races. Notably, the Libertarian Party fielded candidates in more races than the Democratic Party; as of the 2020, this is the last time this has occurred.
