据 Decision Desk HQ 预测，民主党籍众议员小维森特·冈萨雷斯 (Vicente Gonzalez Jr.) 在德州第 34 选区的连任竞选中获胜，击败共和党挑战者埃里克·弗洛雷斯 (Eric Flores)，成功捍卫这一关键战场席位。
Democratic Rep. Vicente Gonzalez Jr. (D) is projected to win reelection in Texas’s 34th District, defeating GOP challenger Eric Flores to defend the battleground seat, according to Decision Desk HQ.
这位南德州议员 2016 年首次当选众议员，先后三届代表德州第 15 选区，随后在 2022 年赢得该州第 34 选区的席位。作为温和派民主党人，他曾在众议院金融服务委员会任职，并推动过旨在支持该州石油天然气产业、加强军事资金透明度的两党立法。
The South Texas lawmaker was first elected to the House in 2016, serving three terms representing Texas’s 15th District before winning the 2022 race for the state’s 34th District. The moderate Democrat served on the House Financial Services Committee and has introduced bipartisan legislation aimed at supporting the state’s oil and gas industries and to increase transparency around military funding.
冈萨雷斯的竞选主张包括降低生活成本、保障老年人和退伍军人福利、维护女性权利，以及扩大医疗和教育获取渠道。
The Democrat campaigned on lowering living costs, safeguarding benefits for seniors and veterans, protecting women’s rights, and expanding access to healthcare and education.
第 34 选区沿德州与墨西哥边境延伸，涵盖里奥格兰德河谷部分地区，包括科珀斯克里斯蒂 (Corpus Christi) 部分区域和边境城市布朗斯维尔 (Brownsville)。该选区在 2025 年州共和党主导的中期重新划分选区中被重新划向有利于共和党的方向，拥有大量拉美裔人口，被视为摇摆选区。2020 年总统大选中，该选区仅略超 50% 的选民支持时任总统拜登；而 2024 年大选中，近 55% 的选民支持特朗普。
The 34th District runs along a stretch of Texas’s border with Mexico and covers part of the Rio Grande Valley, including a portion of Corpus Christi and the border city of Brownsville. The district — which was redrawn in the GOP’s favor in 2025 during a mid-decade redistricting push led by state Republicans — includes a large Latino population and is considered a swing district. Just a little more than 50 percent of voters in this district supported former President Biden in the 2020 presidential election, while nearly 55 percent backed President Trump in the 2024 race.
共和党提名人、美军老兵弗洛雷斯在州共和党初选中轻松获胜后，在本次大选中展开了有力竞争。无党派选情预测机构《库克政治报告》将 11 月的这场竞选评为“势均力敌”。
Flores, the Republican nominee in this race and a U.S. Army veteran, put up a competitive fight after handily winning the state’s GOP primary election. The Cook Political Report, a nonpartisan election forecaster, rated the November race as a “toss-up.”
现任议员的胜利为众议院民主党人带来一席胜利，他们正全力争取夺回众议院多数党地位。
The incumbent lawmaker’s victory marks a win for House Democrats as they fight to regain their majority in the lower legislative chamber.
