By all major statewide elected offices in texas were controlled by republicans.

The answer is 2002. Texas Republicans gained power over of the Texas House of Representatives for the first time since Reconstruction. The newly elected Republican government engaged in an exceptional mid-decade redistricting plan. In 2002, after winning a majority of seats in the State House of Representatives, Republicans gained complete control of the legislature. Tom Delay and Rick Perry , who had the position of US House Majority Leader in January 2003, the Republican majority pioneered legislation to redraw the court-drawn districts from 2001. The result was a gain of six seats by the Republicans in the 2004 elections, giving them a majority of the state's designation for the first time since Reconstruction.

explanation:

in the 1800s, chinese workers migrated to the united states, first to work in the gold mines, but also to take agricultural jobs, and factory work, especially in the garment industry. chinese immigrants were particularly instrumental in building railroads in the american west, and as chinese laborers grew successful in the united states, a number of them became entrepreneurs in their own right. as the numbers of chinese laborers increased, so did the strength of anti-chinese sentiment among other workers in the american economy. this finally resulted in legislation that aimed to limit future immigration of chinese workers to the united states, and threatened to sour diplomatic relations between the united states and china.
