Garcia, with a massive fundraising advantage and support from D.C. Republicans, finished first in a field of seven candidates during the March primary. She captured 23.5 percent of the vote to Whitten’s 18 percent and is considered the favorite to win the nomination.Garcia’s and Whitten’s platforms are similar, and both highlighted border security and energy independence as top issues.
“We're not New York,” Garcia said. “I don't see Texas turning blue anytime soon. If anything, I think we're gonna see more of a red tsunami, more people turning out. There's a real opportunity.” Whitten said she will win over voters by talking with them directly, attacking Garcia for welcoming help from D.C. and living outside the 28th district. Congressional candidates do not have to live in the district they represent, but Garcia lived there until state legislators redrew district boundaries last fall. She now lives just outside the district borders.
