Farenthold WINS!

THIS IS BIG. Solomon Ortiz, a Liberal Democrat who has represented Texas 27th District (Corpus Christi to Rio Grande Valley) since its creation in 1982, lost his race to win reelection in South Texas. The Republican winner of the election, Blake Farenthold, is the first Republican in living memory to win election to a federal Congressional election in Deep South Texas. We all knew something was going on when Ortiz started running nasty, negative ads. Blake maintained a factual, clean campaign that focused on Ortiz’s 98% agreement with Nancy Pelosi, his vote for ObamaCare, and his being in office far too long.
