Vicente Gonzalez, an attorney and small business owner, is running for congress in Texas’s 15th congressional district.
Hoping to replace Democratic Rep. Ruben Hinojosa Sr., who announced he is not seeking reelection, Gonzalez vows in his political ad, “I’ll be taking our South Texas values to Washington. Not the other way around.”
The Results of the Texas’s March 1 Democratic Primary
In the March 1 primary election, Vicente Gonzalez emerged from the Democratic candidates with a commanding lead – taking home 42% of the vote.
However, since he didn’t win a majority of the vote, and none of the other five Democratic candidates did either, two candidates will head to the runoff election on May 24, Vicente and Juan “Sonny” Palacios.
