"OK, Somebody help us out here: Is there a qualified, legitimate Pubbie running against him for this seat? With an Hispanic surname; hopefully?"

Gutierrez is the Congresscritter from Illinois' 4th Congressional District, which includes the mostly Puerto Rican neighborhood of Humbolt Park on Chicago's West Side.

Electing a Republican there would be like successfully building a snowman in Panama.

I knew the districts there were gerrymandered, but just for fun, I looked up the actual map. It shocked even me. Here it is, from Wiki -

Some of those little points to the west look like they include only one house or so. Chicago deserves it.

Illnois 4th dist map. Shows you how bad the IL media is. They allowed a district with any number of disparate commercial and unique interests which use specialized fed assistance to be construted without even a land link simply because the inhabitants have a “hispanic” surname.

It also demonstrates how little regard the commie/ socialists black and white running the democrat (in name only) party have for “hispanics” as a group.
