The 27th Congressional District race is getting crowded. Four people are eying the seat that currently belongs to Rep. Blake Farenthold. On Tuesday, KRIS 6 News spoke with Eric Holguin. The democratic TAMUCC graduate has run for city council, worked for the city of New York and a congresswoman. Now that he's back home in South Texas, he said the area needs more well-paying jobs. He said he has a plan to make that happen. "Infrastructure trickles down to jobs...whenever you have an area that's set up to handle a lot of [road projects, traffic] the jobs pour in, which brings in a better quality of life," explained Holguin
