One race that’s flown under the radar is the 15th Congressional District, an 80% Hispanic district stretching from McAllen in the Valley to the eastern San Antonio suburbs. It has never been represented by a Republican. It was rated as a “Safe D” district by every polling organization.
Republican Monica de la Cruz-Hernandez came within 10,000 votes of unseating the Democrat incumbent, Vincente Gonzalez, despite spending virtually no money. If Republicans had spent just a little money there, they probably could have flipped it.
Maybe she did unseat the incumbent dem but cheating ensured the win. Maybe we will know someday.
I just wish there was some way to break the complete Dem stranglehold on San Antonio and Bexar County. I was disheartened to see the results election night, most local races 70-30 Dem.
