Mayra Flores, a Republican who won a special election to fill the unexpired term of U.S. Rep. Filemon Vela, on Wednesday tweeted that she couldn't wait to work with tech billionaire Elon Musk's team.
Musk said he voted for Flores, who flipped the House seat red.
"I woke up this morning still feeling surreal from everything that's happened over the last 24 hours," Flores tweeted.
"Earning Elon Musk's vote was just the icing on the cake and I can't wait to work with his team! The American Dream is worth fighting for."
In an early Wednesday morning Twitter exchange, Musk wrote: "I voted for Mayra Flores — first time I ever voted Republican. Massive red wave in 2022."
When asked if he would vote for a Republican for president in 2024, Musk replied, "TBD."
A Twitter user then asked him, "What are you leaning towards?" and Musk replied, "DeSantis."
Musk also said he was "thinking of creating a 'Super Moderate Super PAC' that supports candidates with centrist views from all parties."
Flores beat Dan Sanchez, a Democrat, outright in the race, 50.98% to 43.33%. She will be the first Mexican-born congresswoman.

I thought Musk resided in Austin which is not in Flores’ district. If so, how did he vote for her?
He lives in a 450 sq ft. tiny house made by Boxabl, one of his companies. He also keeps a larger ranch type house, but that’s just for when his kids are in town.

She was born in Mexico and English is her second language. I doubt people here can imagine just how much that ANGERS the Democrats that she would even run as a Republican, much less a conservative Republican, much less WIN!
Right. In their world, Democrats literally OWN minorities, and being a Republican — let alone running as one — is prohibited.
