And if so, what impact could it have on the rest of the country? We speak to two Democratic contenders hoping to shift the next election. 

In this episode, Maria Hinojosa speaks with Gina Hinojosa, a Texas State Representative and the Democratic nominee running for Governor of Texas. They discuss key issues like data centers, abortion access and education – and why the outcome of this race has national implications.
