Chairwoman McDaniel: The RNC Is Engaging In Communities That Have Been Taken For Granted By The Democrat Party

PERINO:  The RNC created Hispanic Community Centers in places around the country. Was her district one of those, and what did you take away from the experience of seeing her have that victory on Tuesday?

CHAIRWOMAN MCDANIEL:  It has been a big initiative of the RNC to have these community centers open earlier than ever. We had one in McAllen, Texas, it has been open for seven months, we have 30 across the country. It neighbors Mayra's district: It is in Texas-15, she is in Texas-34. But it has been the headquarters of her campaign, we’ve had staff. But really it has been a long-term investment in engaging in communities that have been habitually Democrat, that have been taken for granted by the Democrat Party, and having a sustained dialogue with them introducing them to the Republican Party. Mayra’s victory in Texas-34 is just a precursor to what we think we are going to see with Hispanic voters heading into 2022.
