A powerful group of men that called themselves the "Texas Association" served as an early prototype for the Democratic Party of Texas.

In 1848, the party convention system was adopted, and it quickly became the primary method of selecting candidates for the Texas Democratic Party. In the period prior to the Civil War, national politics influenced the state party's perspective. Texas Democrats began to discard Jacksonian nationalism in favor of the states' rights agenda of the <a href="/wiki/Deep_South" title="Deep South">Deep South</a>. A conflict emerged within the Party between a minority of pro-<a href="/wiki/Union_(American_Civil_War)" title="Union (American Civil War)">Union</a> Democrats and a majority of secessionists. During the war, supporters of the Union disappeared from the political scene or moved north. Those who stayed politically active supported the <a href="/wiki/Confederate_States_of_America" title="Confederate States of America">Confederacy</a>. During <a href="/wiki/Reconstruction_Era_of_the_United_States" class="mw-redirect" title="Reconstruction Era of the United States">Reconstruction</a>, the rift between Unionist and Secessionist Democrats remained. For a short period immediately after the war, the Texas Democratic Party was a formidable political force, but they quickly split apart because their positions on <a href="/wiki/Freedmen" class="mw-redirect" title="Freedmen">freedmen</a> varied greatly; some supported basic civil rights, while most opposed anything more than emancipation. As a result, Republicans captured both the governor's office and the <a href="/wiki/Texas_Legislature" title="Texas Legislature">Texas Legislature</a> in 1869, but Republican political dominance in the post-Civil War era was short-lived. By 1872, the Texas Democrats had consolidated their party and taken over the Texas legislature.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> For the remainder of the 19th century and well into the 20th, Democrats dominated Texas politics and Republicans were minor political players. </p> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:37_Lyndon_Johnson_3x4.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c3/37_Lyndon_Johnson_3x4.jpg/220px-37_Lyndon_Johnson_3x4.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="292" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c3/37_Lyndon_Johnson_3x4.jpg/330px-37_Lyndon_Johnson_3x4.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c3/37_Lyndon_Johnson_3x4.jpg/440px-37_Lyndon_Johnson_3x4.jpg 2x" data-file-width="924" data-file-height="1228" /></a><figcaption>President <a href="/wiki/Lyndon_B._Johnson" title="Lyndon B.
