That's Sylvia Rodriguez, a county employee, carousing with Da Boss at a TGIF bacchanal at popular Lucky Barrel. Garza-Perez. who battle backed after a severe case of COVID-19 is wisely wearing a face covering as is Rodriguez. Political pundits say that Rodriguez, whose family has had the courthouse coffee shop franchise since they helped elect Tony Garza a county judge, is feeling those political stirrings in the Rodriguez genes and has announced that she will seek the office currently occupied by JP 2-3 Maria Esther Sorola.
That could cause some complications in the current political landscape since Garza-Perez is also running at the same time and many saw her and Sorola as political allies. Rodriguez is also a longtime associate of JP 2-1 Linda Salazar who sees the current JP 2-3 as a political foe after she was forced into a runoff in the primary runoff with Cyndi Hinojosa. It's still a long way to the next Democratic Party primaries, but in Cameron County politics has become a year-round industry.)
