While I am always pleased to see a Dim lose, here is some more info on why this happened. Now of course hispanics will never vote en masse for Republicans but Flores is correct when she says Dims have gotten lazy with non-white voters.

Republican groups spent more heavily on the race than Democrats, and Flores raised $1.1 million through May 25, to Sanchez’s $146,000. But the seat in the next Congress will be more Democratic through redistricting, going from one President Joe Biden won by 4 points in 2020 to one Biden would have won by 16 points.

When you spend $1 million, you will get better results.

"This election was a referendum on Democrats’ reckless policies that created a border crisis, led to record-high inflation, and sent gas prices soaring," Emmer said. "I look forward to working with Mayra in Washington."

Not sure if this is a reason but worth mentioning.

Flores told CQ Roll Call that her candidacy served as a challenge to the Democratic establishment. She criticized Vela’s time in Congress as ineffective for his constituents and characterized the Democratic Party as feeling entitled to the South Texas vote while putting forth very little effort.

Non white dims voters are typically lazy and on welfare and I don't believe a lot of white intellectuals are living in South Texas with those "dirty people".

Have no faith in politicians people. In the end they all work for the big bank in London.

Wonder if he thinks wife-beaters shouldn't be allowed to own guns. Because if he believes that then he's worse than a jew (if he's not a jew) (if he is a jew then... well; he's a jew)

Doesn't matter. Recucks will get slaughtered in November. And in 2024, Texas is going blue.

Yes it is. Don't argue. You know it's happening.
