Bobby Pulido, a Democratic congressional candidate in Texas, is facing scrutiny over his past remarks on grocery shopping. In a 2010 interview, Pulido said he hasn’t gone shopping since becoming a music star, stating ‘I don’t have the time; I’ve never gone to the supermarket to shop… well, very rarely.’

Affordability Campaign

Pulido’s campaign is focused on affordability, with a messaging platform that looks to capitalize on inflation and high gas prices. However, his past remarks on not having time to go shopping may clash with this campaign. Pulido argues that the climb in prices takes a disproportionate toll on his district, which he believes has the lowest per-capita income in the Lone Star State.

Pulido is running against Rep. Monica De La Cruz, a two-term incumbent, in one of the country’s most competitive congressional districts. The election is expected to be closely watched, with Pulido hoping to unseat De La Cruz on November 3.
