Democrat Maureen Galindo, a South Texas sex therapist who drew nationwide ire from Democratic Party<\/a> leaders, was defeated in her primary runoff against Bexar County Sheriff\u2019s Office official Johnny Garcia, according to the Associated Press.<\/p>\n

The seat, newly drawn following Texas Republicans<\/a>\u2019 redistricting effort, is currently represented by “Squad” member Rep. Gregorio Casar. However, the liberal lawmaker is running in an adjacent district being vacated by Rep. Lloyd Doggett, D-Texas, leaving the now red-leaning seat up for grabs.<\/p>\n

Galindo became a national flashpoint when she was accused of antisemitism<\/a> for floating a plan to imprison “American Zionists” at an ICE detention center in the district while pushing back on suggestions she was trying to create an “internment camp.”<\/p>\n

Galindo shocked observers when she edged out Garcia in the original March primary, which led to Tuesday\u2019s runoff.<\/p>\n

Garcia, meanwhile, condemned Galindo\u2019s comments and partially blamed Republicans for bolstering<\/a> her name recognition.<\/p>\n

Garcia is a San Antonio native and has experience working as a police deputy, a SWAT hostage negotiator and a public information officer \u2014 the official tasked with speaking to the press and making public appearances.<\/p>\n

His campaign was framed around his self-description as an old-school Democrat and was viewed as the more moderate choice in Tuesday\u2019s contest.<\/p>\n

Two Republicans are also vying for the seat in the Republican primary \u2014 one of whom is a relative of nearby GOP Rep. Monica de la Cruz.<\/p>\n

With the 35th District redrawn in Republicans\u2019 favor, Democrats appeared to view Galindo\u2019s candidacy as a catastrophic liability.<\/p>\n

Her rhetoric has since been condemned by members of the far left of her party, including Reps. Hakeem Jeffries and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez<\/a> of New York.<\/p>\n

“This vile language by her is disqualifying and has no place in American politics, and certainly not in the\u00a0Democratic Party<\/a>,” Jeffries and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee said in a joint statement, adding, “To embrace and uplift a fringe candidate with antisemitic \u2014 and extremely dangerous \u2014 rhetoric and views in order to win an election is beyond the pale.”<\/p>\n

“Texans will not be fooled and will reject her at the ballot box next week,” they added.<\/p>\n
