Republican Mayra Flores won a special election Tuesday night to represent a Rio Grande Valley congressional district, flipping the longtime Democratic stronghold and soon making her the first congresswoman born in Mexico.
Her success is a hard-fought victory for Republicans, who have been fiercely targeting South Texas since making inroads there in 2020.
The national party has poured money and resources into the district, believing that a Flores win on Tuesday is an early indication that they can take back the U.S. House of Representatives in November.
The piece, however, focuses on Mayra Flores family life, including her husband and children.

According to news reports, Flores is a Christian and married to a Border Patrol officer, however, his name has not been released to the public.
