获得特朗普背书的共和党人乔恩·邦克周二赢得了得克萨斯州第38国会选区共和党初选 runoff,这意味着他有望接替众议员韦斯利·亨特,出任该稳固共和党票仓的休斯顿地区国会席位议员。

邦克击败了飞行员、西休斯顿机场主席谢莉·德泽瓦洛斯。此前他在3月初的初选中大幅领先一众候选人,但未能获得直接获得提名所需的多数票。

根据Ballotpedia对3月初初选结果的统计,他在首轮投票中以47.7%的得票率领跑,而德泽瓦洛斯以18.6%的得票率晋级 runoff。

邦克将在11月的大选中迎战民主党候选人梅利莎·麦克多诺,不过共和党在得克萨斯州第38国会选区占据极大优势,《库克政治报告》将该休斯顿地区选区评为“稳固共和党”票仓。

2022年首次当选众议员的亨特决定不再寻求连任众议院席位,转而参选联邦参议院,该选区由此成为开放席位竞选。

根据他的领英主页信息,邦克于2009年毕业于路易斯安那州立大学,获得生物化学学位。目前他在休斯顿地区担任抵押贷款行业经理。

获得唐纳德·特朗普总统和得克萨斯州联邦参议员特德·克鲁兹背书的邦克,以基督教保守派、顾家男人的形象展开竞选。他在竞选网站上称自己“不是政治名人”,而是“服务型领袖”。他的竞选网站还列出了众议员布兰登·吉尔(R-得克萨斯州)和摩根·拉特利尔(R-得克萨斯州)的背书。

在本月初 runoff 前的候选人问卷中,邦克将经济负担、移民和公共安全列为他希望代表的休斯顿地区选区面临的三大挑战。

他同时表示,将美国放在首位“意味着加固边境、停止给外国开空白支票、削减浪费性支出和监管、降低生活成本,并赋予家庭权力”。

邦克还补充道,政府“应当退居幕后,让小企业能够发展,让父母能够主导子女的教育和医疗保健决策”。

Trump-backed Republican Jon Bonck won the GOP runoff Tuesday for Texas’ 38th Congressional District, putting him on track to succeed Rep. Wesley Hunt in a solidly Republican Houston-area seat.

Bonck defeated Shelly deZevallos, a pilot and president of the West Houston Airport, after finishing far ahead of the March primary field but falling just short of the majority needed to win the nomination outright.

He led the first round with 47.7% of the vote, while deZevallos advanced to the runoff with 18.6%, according to Ballotpedia’s results from the early-March primary contest.

Bonck will advance to face Democrat Melissa McDonough in the November general election, though Republicans are expected to be heavily favored in Texas’ 38th Congressional District, with Cook Political Report rating the Houston-area seat Solid Republican.

The race became an open-seat contest after Hunt, who was first elected in 2022, opted against seeking another House term and instead launched a U.S. Senate bid.

Bonck graduated from Louisiana State University in 2009 with a degree in biochemistry, according to his LinkedIn profile. He is currently a mortgage industry manager in the Houston area.

Endorsed by President Donald Trump and Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, Bonck campaigned as a Christian conservative, family man and described himself on his campaign website as “not a political celebrity” but rather a “servant leader.” He also touts endorsements from Reps. Brandon Gill, R-Texas, and Morgan Luttrell, R-Texas, on his campaign website.

In a candidate questionnaire, from earlier this month ahead of the runoff, Bonck listed affordability, immigration and public safety as the three biggest challenges facing the Houston-area district he is hoping to represent.

Meanwhile, he said putting America first “means securing the border, stopping blank checks to foreign countries, cutting waste and regulation, lowering costs, and empowering families.”

Bonck also added that government “should get out of the way so small businesses can grow and parents can lead their children’s education and healthcare decisions.”
