Sen. Elizabeth Warren Elizabeth WarrenNo new taxes for the ultra rich — fix bad tax policy instead Democrats back away from quick reversal of Trump tax cuts It's time for newspapers to stop endorsing presidential candidates MORE's (D-Mass.) presidential campaign announced Thursday that it will host a series of events in Texas next week in an attempt to court the Latino vote.

The events start in San Antonio on Monday and end in Houston on Friday. Warren will not physically be at the events and will rely on surrogates, such as former San Antonio Mayor and Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julián Castro, who threw his support to Warren after ending his presidential bid.

The campaign will also host events in Laredo, Corpus Christi and McAllen — each a densely Hispanic Democratic enclave in the state.

Castro’s mother, Rosie Castro, a civil rights leader, will also serve as a surrogate to Warren’s campaign, as well as actress and comedian Cristela Alonzo.

Texas will hold its primary on Super Tuesday, March 3, along with several other states and has 38 electoral votes. Warren has a large presence in the state, with staff spread through San Antonio, Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston, Austin and the Rio Grande Valley.

On Thursday Politico reported that multiple women of color left Warren’s Nevada staff citing racial insensitivity, particularly toward Latinos. Nevada is the only early primary state with a significant Latino population.
