Doug Emhoff Campaigns for Texas Democrats in San Antonio

Doug Emhoff, the Second Gentleman, is set to visit Texas for a series of fundraisers and a 'Freedom to Vote' rally in San Antonio, highlighting the importance of the state in the upcoming presidential campaign. His campaign activities come amid tensions surrounding recent raids by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton's office on Latino election activists, which have been condemned as voter intimidation by the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC). Emhoff will appear alongside key Texas Democrats and aims to support the party's coordinated campaign, dubbed 'Texas Offense'. Despite Texas not being a primary target for the presidential race, Emhoff's visit underscores the significance of fundraising in the state, as both major campaigns are vying for financial support. Notably, Trump's campaign has raised $23 million from Texas, while Harris's campaign has garnered $15 million. Upcoming campaign finance reports are anticipated to shed light on recent fundraising efforts for both candidates.
