Tejano歌星Bobby Pulido赢下德州第15国会选区:击败现任议员De La Cruz,共和党席位被翻转

据美联社计票结果,民主党候选人、Tejano 音乐明星 Bobby Pulido 在11月3日的选举中赢下德克萨斯州第15国会选区,击败寻求第三个任期的共和党现任联邦众议员 Monica De La Cruz,翻转了共和党自2022年以来控制的这个席位。美联社于美东时间11月4日凌晨0时37分宣布 Pulido 当选。
美联社统计显示,在已报告约99%的选区计票中,Pulido 获得126,204票,De La Cruz 获得76,305票,两人得票率约为62%对38%。De La Cruz 已于选举夜约22时10分承认败选。计票结果仍属非官方数据,有待正式认证。
现年53岁的 Pulido 是拉丁格莱美奖得主,在南德州 Rio Grande Valley 一带成名从艺三十年,此次是他首次竞选公职。第15选区居民以拉丁裔为主体,从 Rio Grande Valley 向北延伸至 San Antonio 以东的乡村社区,选区边界在2026年选举前经过重新划分;2024年总统选举中,特朗普曾在该选区以约18个百分点的优势获胜。Pulido 的竞选主打生活成本与医疗议题。
De La Cruz 于2022年首次赢下该选区,是德州选出的首位共和党拉丁裔女性联邦众议员。Pulido 预计将于2027年1月3日新一届国会开幕时宣誓就职。

Tejano Star Bobby Pulido Wins Texas's 15th Congressional District, Defeating Incumbent Monica De La Cruz
Democrat Bobby Pulido, a Tejano music star making his first run for public office, won Texas's 15th Congressional District on November 3, defeating two-term Republican U.S. Rep. Monica De La Cruz and flipping a seat Republicans had held since 2022, according to Associated Press results. The AP declared Pulido the winner at 12:37 a.m. EST on November 4.
With about 99% of precincts reporting, the AP count showed Pulido with 126,204 votes to De La Cruz's 76,305, roughly 62% to 38%. De La Cruz conceded at about 10:10 p.m. on election night. Results remain unofficial pending certification.
Pulido, 53, is a Latin Grammy-winning singer whose career in the Rio Grande Valley spans three decades. The majority-Hispanic 15th District stretches from the Rio Grande Valley north through rural communities east of San Antonio and was substantially redrawn ahead of the 2026 election; President Donald Trump carried it by about 18 percentage points in 2024. Pulido campaigned on affordability and health care.
De La Cruz first won the district in 2022, becoming the first Republican Latina Texas voters sent to the U.S. House. Pulido is expected to be sworn in when the new Congress convenes on January 3, 2027.
