HOUSTON (KTRK) — The Texas vote is changing. And maybe the most critical part of that change is the ballots cast by Hispanics.

The Lone Star Project is a political action committee that reaches out to Democrats, and he says the effort to turn Texas blue will include a heavy push to get Hispanics to the polls.

“Candidates from both parties are going to try to reach out to Hispanics, but it’s going to be those candidates who can personally relate to Hispanics, on a one-on-one basis, that will be able to obtain that vote,” Nieto said.
