SAN ANTONIO – With the 2024 election ramping up, Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Colin Allred received a significant endorsement from Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar. Salazar joined Allred in San Antonio to address law enforcement and border security ahead of the upcoming election.
Salazar’s support for Allred is not just a casual nod; it’s an official endorsement in the race against Republican incumbent Sen. Ted Cruz. Salazar emphasized Allred’s commitment to issues important to residents of Bexar County and Texans overall. He highlighted Allred’s bipartisan approach and unwavering support for law enforcement.
Colin Allred, a Dallas native, currently represents Texas’ 32nd Congressional District. With polls showing a tight race between Allred and Cruz, Salazar’s endorsement could provide a significant boost to Allred’s campaign.
Salazar, who is also running for reelection, made waves on a national stage at the 2024 Democratic National Convention in Chicago, where he lauded Vice President Kamala Harris’s efforts on the U.S.-Mexico border.
Recent polls have indicated a shifting landscape in the race, with Allred gaining ground on Cruz. This momentum is further solidified by Salazar’s endorsement and active participation in upcoming Democratic events.
