美國期中選舉開票結果陸續出爐,多間美媒宣布民主黨52歲候選人希諾霍薩(Gina Hinojosa)當選德州州長,擊敗追求4連霸的現任共和黨州長艾波特(Greg Abbott),而且希諾霍薩還創下了歷史,成為當地首個拉丁裔州長。
綜合美媒報導,自從民主黨前德州州長安·理查茲(Dorothy Ann Richards)1995年卸任後,民主黨就從未入主德州,希諾霍薩此次無疑扭轉共和黨對德州長達31年的控制。
希諾霍薩為德州眾議院現任議員,她在資金、知名度都相當有限的情況下參選,而且未能得到黨內的重點支持,孰料卻擊敗被認為是共和黨最傑出州長之一的艾波特。
艾波特向來堅定支持總統川普,此次敗北可能代表著德州將從傳統的共和黨票倉,轉變為總統大選至關重要的搖擺州,因此希諾霍薩的勝利讓民主黨人士雀躍不已。
德州州長選舉尚未完全開票結束,希諾霍薩目前得票率52.9%、464萬4869票;艾波特得票率45.7%、400萬6079票,多間美媒已將希諾霍薩視為當選人。
