TX-15: His opponent dissed his music. Now everyone wants to party with him.
After his Republican opponent denigrated his musical career, Democrat Bobby Pulido fired back by offering to perform at quinceañeras in his district—and, according to his campaign, huge numbers are already clamoring for him to celebrate with them.
“This election isn’t about who you want performing at your niece’s quinceañera,” said Republican Rep. Monica De La Cruz in an online video attacking Pulido. “It’s about who you trust with your family’s future.”........
“Look, my corrupt opponent tried to take a shot at me the other day. And she said the only place I belong is playing quinceañeras,” he began. “But you know what? I’m proud of that. Because in South Texas, a quinceañera isn’t just a pachanga. It’s a rite of passage that brings family and neighbors together.” (“Pachanga” is slang for “party.”)
“And honestly, that’s exactly what this campaign is about. We want to bring people together, not tear them apart,” he continued. “So if you or a member of your family is turning 15 and is planning a quinceañera in my district, I’d be honored to stop by and celebrate with you. Send us a DM and let’s talk.”
