Republicans view Flores’ race against Democrat Rep. Vicente Gonzalez as potentially competitive race.
The House Republicans ’ campaign arm has named former Rep. Mayra Flores a 2024 “ Young Gun ,” designating her bid against Democrat Rep. Vicente Gonzalez as a top pickup opportunity. The National Republican Congressional Committee announced this week that the Los Indios Republican is one of 26 candidates being boosted through their Young Gun s program, which provides mentorship, training and extra resources to Republican challengers. The race is one of few in Texas seen as potentially competitive.
She lost to Gonzalez by 8 percentage points. “We welcome the NRCC to invest in another race in the RGV they are guaranteed to lose,” Gonzalez said in a statement. “These are the types of amateur investment decisions that will guarantee us a new Democratic Majority in the House.” The 34th District, which includes Brownsville, Harlingen and parts of McAllen, is more solidly Democratic than the neighboring 15th District, currently represented by Rep. Monica De La Cruz, R-Edinburg.
