Two major Texas candidates have won the support of Jolt. On Sunday, Jolt, which was described at the San Antonio Express News as a "civic engagement organization working to mobilize Latino millennial voters," announced its support for Beto O'Rourke in his race for the U.S. Senate against incumbent Republican Ted Cruz and Libertarian challenger Neal Dikeman. The group also released a second endorsement, which attracted more attention, as it backed Houston businessman Andrew White over former Dallas County Sheriff Lupe Valdez in the race for governor. White and Valdez both appeared at a candidate forum with the organization over the weekend, in which both candidates faced questions regarding border security and sanctuary cities. Valdez was grilled over her conduct as sheriff, as well as a federal lawsuit that was filed against her department, stating that the Dallas County Sheriff's office had violated the Constitutional rights of some people when they were held for immigration authorities. White also faced questions about technology services offered by his company, Geovox Security. White was questioned over certain services by Geovox and whether those services are used on the U.S.-Mexico border. Both White and Valdez will square off in a May 22nd runoff to decide the nominee of the Democratic Party in the race for governor. The winner of that race will face Republican incumbent Greg Abbott and Libertarian Mark Tippetts in November.
