No surprise here, Houston has always been liberal Democrat. What happens there doesn't reflect on the rest of Texas.

From wikipedia:
The city of Houston itself has historically voted Democratic except for its affluent western and west-central portions, including the River Oaks, Westchase, Memorial and Uptown/Post Oak areas, as well as the Kingwood and Clear Lake City master-planned communities on Houston's far northeast and southeast sides, respectively. All these areas favor and are almost entirely represented both in Congress and in the Texas Legislature by Republicans. Democrats' strongest areas are within Loop 610, and also in the largely poor and minority northern, eastern and southern portions of Houston. Most of these areas have sizable Hispanic populations, though some northern and southern parts of the city have notable African-American communities. Democrats are also stronger in the more liberal Montrose neighborhood, which is home to a large artist and LGBT community, and Alief, which houses a sizable Asian-American population. In 2008, almost every county in the region voted for Republican John McCain, however only Harris County was won by Democratic President Barack Obama by a small margin (51%-49%).[27] Galveston has long been a staunch Democratic stronghold, with the most active Democratic county establishment in the state.[28] |

Central Austin is democratic but the suburbs outside are republican. Probably the same way with Houston?
