New York Times Opinion
The Rio Grande Valley in South Texas, along the U.S.-Mexico border, has historically been a Democratic stronghold. But in 2024, the region swung for Donald Trump. Now with the midterm elections less than three weeks away, voters here could help determine whether Texas sends a Democrat to the Senate. In a special series for @nytopinion, the writer Mara Gay has been traveling across the country to ask voters: How is your America doing? For the final installment, she traveled to South Texas to hear from voters who described their fears about immigration enforcement, frustration with the economy and desire for stability. | 📷 Chris Kursel #nytopinion
