Gina Hinojosa, once an unknown candidate, has been elected as the new governor of Texas, becoming the state's first Latina governor. She defeated Republican Greg Abbott, who had served since 2015 and won previous elections by large margins. Hinojosa began her political career as an angry mother fighting to save a neighborhood school and used her identity as a Latina woman to connect with voters and secure victory in a state that hadn't elected a Democrat governor in 36 years.
