EXCLUSIVE — A Republican Latina aiming to squeeze the Democratic Party out of a seat it has held for more than a century pulled in more than $1 million in donations in the final quarter before the midterm election.
Monica De La Cruz reeled in seven figures between July and September, putting her total fundraising for this cycle just below $4 million, according to a spokesman for her campaign. The insurance agent has aligned herself with former President Donald Trump on issues including border security, the economy, and foreign policy.
De La Cruz is making a second run for the 15th Congressional District in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas after losing in 2020 to Rep. Vicente Gonzalez, a Democrat who is running for the neighboring 34th District this year.Federal Election Commission data on the third quarter are due at the end of the week. De La Cruz’s haul this time around is more than 10 times greater than the $93,529 she raised in the same period two years earlier.
