City of Brownsville commissioner Pedro Cardenas – a staunch supporter of former Port of Brownsville commissioner Steve Guerra for the nomination for Cameron County judge in the Democratic Party runoff election against incumbent Eddie Treviño – has apparently defected to the Republican candidate for District 34 Erick Flores in his challenge of Democratic District 34 incumbent Vicente Gonzalez.
This, surprisingly, since Guerra has been one of the Democratic congressman's known confidants and political allies in his previous campaigns. Now, in a congressional district gerrymandered by the state to one which Trump won by 10 percent, Gonzalez is depending on Cameron County voters to defeat his Nueces County Republican opponent Flores in November.
Reports indicate that Cardenas has been seen driving around Flores and showing him around and introducing him to people in Brownsville. Does Cardenas have a job with Flores if the Republican wins?
Does that mean that the Guerra "team" – who supported their candidate in his run for the Democratic Party primary against Treviño – will now jump and support Republicans at the county, state and federal level should Treviño defeat Guerra?

Former Cameron County sheriff Erick Garza pulled the same stunt when he lost the Democratic nomination against Manny Treviño and endorsed Jimmy Manrrique, the Republican candidate in November.
Cardenas wouldn't be the only one suddenly exhibiting Republican spots. Remember the Fourth of July rally the Texas Republican District 27 Senator Adam Hinojosa held last year? That's Guerra loyalist and Brownsville entertainment district hustler Turi Treviño sporting his MAGA gimme cap at the time.
Turi likes to say that he wants to build "new traditions" in Brownville. Is seeking political office in one party and then switching when it's convenient one of them?

why are you complaining when youre friend zeke silva turned on democrats to support and work for republican adam hinojosa? pedro is copying zeke the trendsetter.
It is encouraging to observe that certain individuals in this region are finally distancing themselves from the hateful, corrupt party lacking common sense. Go MAGA!
Pedro is not a leader. Only a few losers follow him.
These guys are from the green party as in money
All they seek is wealth
It seems you are the only one who did not know Cardenas is a Republican. Now how about reporting how the majority of Brownsville City Commissioners are Republicans. John Cowen, Tino Villareal, and Linda Macia have all sat with Abbott.
Eric Flores is the way to go! Gonzalez is a crook and even says to support Veterans, so I’m sure he will be voting for Eric Flores!
Once you support fascists like Trump that want to deny help to the most vulnerable people in society, It doesn't matter if you're a Christian, a veteran, a lawyer or POTUS you can go fuck yourself.
Why did you even serve, for what to become an entitled little bitch?
Doug Stanhope on nationalism
Eddie Trevino too.
None of them are Republicans. Pedro told voters to vote in the DEM primary like he did. Why do Republicans make shit up anonymously?
Turi and Pedro are both basura losers looking for an easy paycheck and relevance.
Ted Cruz won the district by 2 in a Trump red wave. Trump won it by 10. Pedro and Turi are not stopping the blue wave.
Chente is laughing at these two bozos.
Turi Treviño es un lastre de la politiquería de Brownsville ser corrupto, traicionero y sin ética son sus características, Pedro Cárdenas lo sigue muy de cerca al igual
Google chaketa it means self pleasure
Exactly! He's a bullsitter and scammer! He's barely holding on to his commissioner's seat as it is! This guy does nothing for the people and just lives off scamming and lying! And now he's got GUS De Leon licking his boots as well.
Democrats , Please keep Pedro to yourselves, we don't need anymore ASSHOLES in our camp. LOL
Cardenas is irrelevant, and anybody standing with him or next to him has doomed their fate. He is a killer of campaigns.
Pedro and his wife received a shit load of public grant money to fund his coffee shop downtown at Trey’s building and it failed within 2 years. Shit food and even worse coffee. Ran by a bunch of gay boys from matamoros because the wife was never around.
They’re not Republicans pendejo, just because they took a photo with the governor doesn’t mean they’re anything. It’s your stupid assumption to think they are. Having worked on projects with all 3 of them on an individual basis, I can assure you they’re not republicans nor MAGA. Pedro on the other hand is a boot licker for Trump. Pedro and his buddies are MAGA. Steve is now MAGA as well. Why, you ask? Pedro and Steve, just follow the free money! How very conservative of them!
100% nailed it on the head
He’s coming for them! Fair warning!
Luis VillaReal at the port of Brownsville is just a place holder. If Steve loses his race Luis is resigning for him and the board is going to appoint Steve. Steve we’re not mensos, we can see right past you.
Doug Stanhope? Now your leaning towards sick humor. I sense desperation from the left.
It is good to make good friends. All Cameron County residents are primos, compadres and manitos.
Voluntary soldiers and veterans aren't entitled to shit. Conscripted Soldiers and Veterans are. Which one are you?
One more isn't going to hurt besides he's into money like your Presidential Christ and Savior.
Pedro es mura mierda. Talk about rata.
Raise your hand if you are a democrat and you are divorced? Also if you are married does your wife have a bf? I bet she does. Low T dems lol
