The Supreme Court ruled on December 4, 2025, allowing Texas to use the new redistricting map for 2026, which radically redrew TX-09 into a Republican-leaning district incorporating heavy-Republican areas like Liberty County. Consequently, Democratic incumbent Al Green abandoned the district to run in TX-18 (where he is in a runoff). TX-09 is now an 'Open Seat' with strong Republican contenders like Briscoe Cain and Alex Mealer advancing to a runoff. Given the decisive structural map advantage (shifting from deep blue to red) and the exit of the Democratic incumbent, the Republican win probability aligns with a 'Likely/Solid Republican' rating (>85%), making the current 66.5-cent price a significant undervaluation.

Divergence
Significant divergence exists. Market pricing (~67%) implies a competitive race (Lean R or Toss-up), whereas current political data (including the redistricting map confirmed in late 2025 and implied ratings from Cook/Sabato) indicates the district has been gerrymandered into a Republican stronghold. The abandonment of the seat by Democratic incumbent Al Green is the strongest signal that the district is unwinnable for Democrats. The market price is lagging significantly behind the fundamental reality of a 'Safe Republican' seat.
