His campaign launched a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gregabbott.com\/nuevo-anuncio-texans-for-greg-abbott-lanza-anuncio-en-espanol-sobre-las-politicas-radicales-de-gina-hinojosa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Spanish-language ad<\/a> that cast Hinojosa as too socially liberal for the state, with press secretary Eduardo Leal arguing in a statement last week that her policies don&#8217;t match &#8220;the values of the Hispanic community.&#8221; Abbott has also <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/GovAbbottPress\/status\/1705625325760127429\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">highlighted his wife Cecilia&#8217;s status<\/a> as the state&#8217;s first Hispanic first lady.<\/p>\n<p>Hispanics <a href=\"https:\/\/www.census.gov\/quickfacts\/fact\/table\/TX\/PST045225\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">make up around 40%<\/a> of Texas&#8217; population, and they could play a central role in Hinojosa&#8217;s push to become Texas&#8217; first Democratic governor in over three decades. A <a href=\"https:\/\/assets1.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/cms\/prod_cms_alt\/file\/2026\/10\/18\/a2543f6e-33c4-4bc3-af45-fc50a0b98b34\/cbsnews_20261018_texas__sun.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CBS News poll earlier this month<\/a> showed Abbott leading Hinojosa by four points outright, with a 3.4-point margin of error, but Hinojosa led by 23 points among likely Hispanic voters.<\/p>\n<p>But the group is not nearly as blue as it once was.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Some 55% of Latino Texans voted for Mr. Trump in 2024, according to CBS News&#8217; exit poll data. Latino men favored the president by a nearly two-to-one margin. That shift was an earthquake in Texas politics, turning once-reliably Democratic counties in the Rio Grande Valley into GOP-leaning territory and scrambling Democrats&#8217; hopes that Texas could be turning their way.<\/p>\n<p>In comments to CBS News, Hinojosa offered her own explanation for Mr. Trump&#8217;s success with Hispanic voters in 2024, arguing that his message resonated with Texans who felt the political establishment had failed them.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The reason why Trump won, and why he was able to capture the Latino vote in the Valley and in Texas, is because he said the system is rigged \u2014 and he&#8217;s right. Democrats had been defending a system that is indefensible, that is actually working against us,&#8221; Hinojosa said.<\/p>\n<p>Democrats are hopeful that the shift will be temporary. Nationwide polling shows that many Latino voters have <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/latino-voters-poll-trump-democrats-midterms-immigration\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">turned away from Mr. Trump<\/a><\/span> since 2024, and Democratic strategists in Texas have <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/latino-texas-voters-democrats-primary-talarico-cornyn-paxton-trump\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">taken solace in high turnout in heavily Latino areas<\/a><\/span> during this year&#8217;s Democratic primary.<\/p>\n<p>Gallego&#8217;s former campaign adviser, Democratic strategist and CBS News political contributor Chuck Rocha, is now advising both Hinojosa and Texas Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico.<\/p>\n<p>Rocha told CBS News many Hispanic voters are disillusioned with high gas prices and other cost-of-living worries, though Mr. Trump&#8217;s immigration policies have also caused frustration.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Right now, they&#8217;re more monolithic than I have ever seen in my life, and they&#8217;re monolithically mad,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>But Daniel Garza, president of the conservative Latino advocacy group LIBRE Initiative, said &#8220;there is no pro-Democrat enthusiasm&#8221; in his home region of South Texas.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think most voters couldn&#8217;t tell you what the Democrat plan is for bringing down prices,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>For now, Hinojosa is betting that one of Mexico&#8217;s biggest sports stars can help her land a punch with the voters both parties are fighting to win.<\/p>\n<section class=\"content__body--footer\">\n<p class=\"content__meta--contributors
