GOP House candidate Monica De La Cruz says Democrats, media don't understand Hispanic community in South Texas

Texas House candidate Monica De La Cruz says Hispanics in South Texas are embracing GOP politics because they want a secure border, love God and their love families.
De La Cruz faces progressive Democrat Michelle Vallejo in Texas’ newly redrawn 15th Congressional District along the southern border. She feels the left has woken up to the fact that more Hispanic voters are starting to embrace Republican politics, as a group partially funded by liberal billionaire George Soros is attempting to take control of Spanish-language talk radio and mainstream news organizations have put a spotlight on the changing landscape.

"I think that there are several Hispanic candidates, as well as a diverse set of candidates in the Republican Party, that are reflecting the fabric of America," she said.
"We have six excellent Hispanic candidates, most of which are bilingual, who are reflection of their community, and at the end of the day, sharing the true values of Hispanics, which are law and order, the love of God, their family, and the appreciation of hard work and the American dream," De La Cruz continued. "I think that our voice has just become too loud to ignore, that the national media and the [Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee], Soros can no longer ignore us and thus can no longer take the Hispanic vote for granted."
