U.S. Rep. Solomon P. Ortiz conceded late Monday to Congressman-elect Blake Farenthold.
Noting that the recount of more than 106,000 votes had been completed in the district, Ortiz said: “Therefore, with great respect and admiration in the Democratic process, I congratulate my opponent, Mr. R. Blake Farenthold, in his election to the 27th Congressional District of Texas in the U.S. House of Representatives.”
Cameron County, the last county in the district that includes San Patricio, Nueces, Kleberg, Kenedy, and Willacy counties, concluded its recount Monday, although the results were not available at press time.
Sing it!!!
