WASHINGTON — Republican Rep. Jake Ellzey won reelection to a U.S. House seat representing Texas on Tuesday, defeating Democrat John Love III to secure a third term in office. Ellzey, a retired Navy officer and former commercial airline pilot, defeated two other Republicans in the March primary to advance to the general election against Love. Texas' 6th Congressional District stretches from the Dallas-Fort Worth suburbs through a large swath south and southeast of the metroplex, including all of Ellis, Navarro, Anderson, Hill and Cherokee counties. The Associated Press declared Ellzey the winner at 10:10 p.m. EST.
