How the border county where Elon Musk is a local flipped for Trump
Trump did something no Republican has done in 20 years: He flipped Cameron County. Trump won the county with 53% of the vote, the first time a Republican presidential candidate claimed victory here since George W. Bush, the former Texas governor and then the president, in 2004. It was one of a string of largely blue-collar Hispanic Democratic strongholds across South Texas where Trump made major inroads.
