Candace Valenzuela is a Democratic politician running to become a congresswoman to represent the 24th Congressional District in Texas. She is in the general election which is going to be held on November 3, 2020, but she has won a primary runoff on July 14, 2020. Candace defeated Republican candidate Kim Olson by receiving 59.9 percent of the total votes.
Candace’s progressive financial policies might have been the reason for her win. People across the United States of America are tired of Donald Trump and that might have caused the new Democratic wave this year. Candace is the part of the wave and we have to wait and see if she can win the general election in November as well.
