Las Cruces attorney Xochitl Torres Small has won the Democratic nomination for New Mexico's 2nd Congressional District as the party looks to take control of a seat along the U.S.-Mexico border that's eluded it for years.
Torres Small on Tuesday defeated U.S. Coast Guard veteran Madeline "Mad" Hildebrandt. She'll face the winner of a three-way contest for the Republican nomination in November's general election.
The granddaughter of Mexican immigrants and wife of a state lawmaker, Torres Small has rarely mentioned President Donald Trump's name on the campaign trail. She tells voters she's a gun owner who postponed her honeymoon to go hunting.
The congressional race is one of many expected to draw national attention because it may help determine which party controls the U.S. House of Representatives.
