"Growing up, Mayra (Flores) worked alongside her parents in the cotton fields in Memphis, Texas to earn extra money for school clothes and supplies. Instilling the value of hard work and the importance of education in her at a young age."
"In 2004, she graduated high school in San Benito, Texas..."
In one of her campaign ads, Flores talks about picking cotton when she was 13. Ok. Let's say that she graduated when she was 18 in 2004, that would have made her 13 in 1999, when all cotton harvesting had been done mechanically for more than 30 years.
"Between 1948 and the late 1960s, mechanical harvesting of the cotton crop went from essentially zero to 96 percent of the crop."
"Between 1948 and the late 1960s, mechanical harvesting of the cotton crop went from essentially zero to 96 percent of the crop."
So how could Flores – in 1999 – be picking cotton by hand?
If her claims about picking cotton by hand are obviously false, how can we believe all the rest of her claims? Since she says she is "pro-God," will she claim she was one of Christ's apostles, too?
Flores, a Republican, is running in a special election to the U.S. House to represent Texas' 34th Congressional District. She is also on the ballot in the special congressional election on June 14, 2014.
Flores is also on the ballot in the general election on November 8, 2022. She advanced from the Republican primary on March 1, 2022.
Dan Sanchez and Rene Coronado are Democrats running in the special election. The other Republican in the race besides Flores is Juana Cantu Cabrera.

Not "obviously false," Montoya. She may have. We don't know.
Offer PROOF to your assertion, guey!
obvious to you is not obvious to everyone else.
Be objective, Montoya.
Your skin color is showing, cangrejo.
Yo les dije que le preguntaran por pruebas y no me hicieron caso!!!!!!
Juan did she take down the video? I was trying to find it on her Facebook and it’s not on her front page!?! Just wait for her to begin complaining that she is being attacked and that her rights are being infringed upon and touts the first amendment. Interview her and ask her real policy questions. Will she be able to answer them?
Oye, mi vieja dice que me mando un Tuit, pero que es eso?
Montoya, I'd rather vote for Mayra Flores then vote for one of those two democrats! But you democrat lovers have a choice between the two? You all didn't vote for Dan "the man" Sanchez because you wanted that short POS in Eddie Trevino. Well, what do you do? Vote for Rene Coronado? Montoya, not everyone can afford a cotton picking machine pendejo! You're just like the national media from the left, always race baiting and promoting racism!
Full of racist republican commentators that have been brain washed by los gringos. Regardless how much you kiss white asses pinches cocos YOU WILL NEVER BE WHITE NUNCA ASS KISSING GRINGO/COCOS. REMEMBER GRINGOS DON'T LIKE MESKINS, MURDERERS AND THIEVES LIKE YA AL'.
AND IF CHEETOO WINS HE WILL SENT ALL OF YOU BACK TO MEXICO IN A NUCLEAR MISSLE.
IDIOTAS PENDEJOS...
What is mayra gonna do in a room full of white men racist repubicans? Pass around las tortillas.
They're all a bunch of cotton picking corrupt nacos.
It is possible that she did. No denying, her parents did go north to work.
Maybe she meant cotton dresses, or maybe cotton napkins, or cotton balls, or maybe she went to the cotton bowl or ordered a cotton gin drink over at la catorce. who knows
Juan i hope Mayra Flores wins, i am voting for her, i have had enuff of these DINO and closet republicans like eddie lucio JR, eddie lucio el TURD-mohon, time to give the republicans a try, i been voting for over 40 years for the democrats y NADA only their pockets get bigger every year. Time to give los del hueso colorado a chance, cant be any worst off than these DINOS, aka DemocRATS. Just ask Gilberto Hinojete.
I don't vote for the party, I vote for the person. There are cheaters and "mentirosos" on both sides. If neither one convinces me, then I just skip to the next position for voting but he/ or she will NOT win with MY vote. I DONT insult the Democrats or Republicans, I don't call people names, I DO SHOW UP, give a vote to the PERSON I believe will do a passing regular better job, I skip he/she that I don't trust or believe is being sincere, and if, at the end of the day, the person I voted for does not win, or the person I did vote for wins; either way, I have done my duty as a citizen, as a registered voter and ACCEPT that in a DEMOCRACY, there is always a winner and a loser.
To the real racists on these comment sections, I do not know or care for Mayra. But you all real racists are hating on a smart, good looking young Latina for the following reasons:
1. She is running as a Republican
2. Refer to reason 1.
Nothing more, nothing less. 😂
Who are the real “racists”?
I am a Latina Democrat and I am voting for her. All of my family and friends are voting for her. No matter how much Dan pays you, she is going to win.
Mija MAyra will fix everything?
Fucking Politicians will have her for breakfast
Or maybe she can team up with Jessica Cisneros
At a racist republican convention someone yells out "Hey you cotton picker bring me a glass of water and hurry, mijita" any questions???
I will never vote racist republican NEVER!
It's not like picking cotton its more like ponte a trabajar y llena el costal apurale apurale no te hagas la pendeja!!!
