Marine combat veteran bets big on Hispanic outreach in bid to flip Dem-held House seat

Greg Cunningham, a Marine combat veteran and law enforcement officer, is running as a Republican in New Mexico’s 2nd Congressional District, targeting Hispanic voters by emphasizing shared conservative values and his experience addressing crime and narcotics. The district, currently represented by Rep. Gabe Vasquez, leans Democratic but voted for Donald Trump in 2024, making it a target for GOP efforts to flip the seat.
