I've also wondered this. We saw similar trends in the 2018 elections in Texas. I think it because places like McAllen, Mission, Brownsville, etc. are moreso bedroom communities where people are more religious and therefore more socially conservative. El Paso is a much bigger city and as such more liberal in nature. But I haven't looked into it that deeply.
