Bexar County GOP accuses Democrat of changing name to appeal to Latino voters
Bexar County GOP officials said they may file a lawsuit against Texas House District 118 candidate Kristian Carranza, a Democrat, alleging that she changed her last name from Thompson to appeal to voters on the city's largely Latino South Side. Carranza is running against Republican incumbent Texas Rep. John Lujan, who's represented the district since 2021. A political newcomer, Carranza won the Democratic primary against Carlos Quezada in May, securing 63% of the vote.
