News
Maureen Galindo lost the Democratic runoff for Texas’s 35th Congressional District to Johnny Garcia. Her campaign drew heavy attention because of backlash over social media remarks that were widely criticized as antisemitic, and Texas Democrats moved to back Garcia instead. The race has been closely watched because the district is expected to be competitive in the general election.
