TX-34 (new district, the southern part of TX-27)
8 Democratic candidates, with the most prominent Filemon Vela. The federal courthouse in Brownsville is named after his father, Filemon Vela, Sr. His wife, Rose Vela, ran for the Republican nomination for a Texas Supreme Court position in 2010.
The mother of a friend of mine is also one of those candidates. She was Solomon Ortiz's chief of staff for twenty years. That should count for something.
Plus, she bought me a bag of skittles one time. That should count for something too.
