Ramiro Garza To Announce South TX Congress Bid

Here’s a press release we came across, though the Texas Democratic Party told us he has yet to file. We previously noted that Armando Villalobos also announced his intentions to run.

(PORT ISABEL, TX) – Ramiro Garza, will officially announce his candidacy for Congress in Texas Congressional District 27.
