Republicans celebrate mayoral win in majority-Hispanic (85%) McAllen, Texas
2021-06-07
[FoxNews] Republicans celebrated Javier Villalobos' narrow win in the mayor's race in McAllen, Texas, on Saturday even though the race is technically nonpartisan.

"Javier Villalobos is a proven leader who cares deeply about the people of the Rio Grande Valley. Congratulations on becoming the next Mayor of McAllen!" Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott wrote on Facebook.

Villalobos, an attorney, was appointed to the Prepaid Higher Education Tuition Board by Abbott in 2018 and is the former chair of the Hidalgo County GOP.

"Amazing news! McAllen, Texas is a major border town of 140,000 people. 85% Hispanic — and just elected a Republican mayor. The macro realignment accelerates in South Texas, and elsewhere, as Hispanics rally to America First," former Trump 2020 campaign adviser Steve Cortes wrote on Twitter.

They can now be called Tejano.

#6  Just feels like a tipping point of some kind. With the Fauci bit. Nigeria and India pushing back on twitter. Guatemalans calling Kamala names. I hope its not all a coincidence. I hope folks are finally sick and tired of liberal over-reach.

#4  These are evil "white Hispanics" like Zimmerman. Marxi-racial category because they did not expected someone called Zimmerman could be Hispanic.
