Upon being moved to Collin County in 1993, district 66 became a suburban Republican stronghold; recently however, the district has become increasingly competitive, with Democrats coming within 1 percentage point of flipping the district in both 2018 and 2020.[2]

As a result of the 2021 redistricting, the district will represent parts of Frisco, Plano, Prosper, and Celina.[3]
