U.S. Rep. Beto O’Rourke campaigned with hundreds of people in Victoria on Thursday, eliciting a sizable turnout for a Democratic candidate in the majority Republican district, according to longtime political observers.

O’Rourke is hoping to unseat U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, the Republican incumbent, in one of the most closely watched Senate races in the country.
