Former U.S. Rep. Joe Garcia announced Wednesday that he will make his fifth run for Congress this year in an attempt to regain his old seat in the House.
The incoming 114th U.S. Congress will feature the largest class of Latinos, and an increase of Republican Latinos in the House of Representatives, thanks in part to Florida voters giving the win to Miami-Dade School Board member Carlos Curbelo against Democratic incumbent Rep. Joe Garcia for the Sunshine State's 26th Congressional District.
Florida's 26th congressional district is home to a heavy Cuban population, and its House of Representatives election has challenged candidates to confront Cuban politics.
