Y'all, the amount of times I roll my eyes at non-Texans erroneosly naming places that ARE NOT the Rio Grande Valley as the RGV.
Now TX's Governor?
So frustrating when people care so little about an area they can't even be bothered to google it. More so when they're in charge. https://twitter.com/GregAbbott_TX/status/1326370586549956610

Not to mention this @Independent UK headline is EXTREMELY misleading.
RGV Latino voters did not "side with Trump." The 4 counties that make up the Valley voted for Biden and Dems once again.
MANY different TX news outlets reported on this. Articles which can easily be found.
