WelpHerrera will just have to wage his war and hope that Orange Man doesn't endorse Gonzalez as he does with other incumbents.
(link / archive)I was beginning to think of Herrera as the out-and-out favorite for the nomination, but this development obviously complicates his path towards the nomination. For what it's worth, however, I can't say this race is over - not when there exists some precedent of Trump-backed candidates barely scraping by or outright losing* their primaries. In addition, Herrera, as far as I can tell, seems to have a solid base of support, one that can keep him competitive in a likely runoff with incumbent Gonzales.
If anybody here lives in TX-23 or knows more about the race, feel free to override my opinion.
*Incidentally this race is how Rep. Lauren Boebert becomes a thing
