Elon Musk (@elonmusk) ~ I voted for Mayra Flores – first time I ever voted Republican.
Massive red wave in 2022.
Dem Rep. Jamaal Bowman, representing New York’s 16th congressional district, is not happy with Elon Musk after he voted for Republican Mayra Flores in Texas.
He tweeted:
Jamaal Bowman (@JamaalBowmanNY) ~ Elon Musk is not a leader. He’s just another Republican billionaire who supports white supremacy and authoritarianism because he doesn't want his workers to unionize or to pay his fair share in taxes.
The GOP just tried to end democracy and now he’s supporting them.
Um, what the f***? Mayra Flores was born in Mexico and she’ll soon be the first congresswoman born in Mexico. That’s some odd white supremacy if you ask us.
Well, Democrats are generally pretty stupid, but New York Democrats are a special breed of ignoramuses.
Houston Chronicle (@HoustonChron) ~ Republican Mayra Flores won a special election Tuesday night to represent a Rio Grande Valley congressional district, flipping the longtime Democratic stronghold and soon making her the first congresswoman born in Mexico.

What’s even better is Musk didn’t say he was supporting her before the race, so she won it without his endorsement:
Mayra Flores For Congress (@MayraFlores2022) ~ I woke up this morning still feeling surreal from everything that's happened over the last 24 hours. Earning Elon Musk’s vote was just the icing on the cake and I can't wait to work with his team! The American Dream is worth fighting for.
Rep. Bowman is just mad that Hispanics aren’t beholden to the Democrat party any longer:
Christina Pushaw (@ChristinaPushaw) ~ She flipped an 84% Hispanic seat that Biden won by 13 points in 2020. Check the hat. 👏👏👏
And there’s a good reason for this, as DeSantis press secretary Christina Pushaw points out here:
Christina Pushaw (@ChristinaPushaw) ~ Mayra Flores’ husband is serving our country as a Border Patrol officer. Border patrol is a major employer in South Texas. Most US Border Patrol agents are Hispanic. Democrats & the Biden Admin have attacked these brave men & women relentlessly. Time’s up.
“Times up,” indeed, as this is happening all over the U.S.:
David Reaboi, Late Republic Nonsense (@davereaboi) ~ This is also one of the main dynamics driving Latino political realignment in Florida. And nobody talks about it.
Not just in law enforcement, there are a ton of small business owners in this group who saw other small business owners get looted out of business with encouragement from prog voters:
David Reaboi, Late Republic Nonsense (@davereaboi) ~ How many Latinos in Florida have relatives in law enforcement? Many, and they were pretty put off by the BLM and Antifa riots.
Democrats’ political violence electoral strategy works in blue states, but it’s poison elsewhere.
Christina Pushaw (@ChristinaPushaw) ~
Many in LE and many small business owners who are very much anti-riot.
And now it’s a very much GOP crowd.
