How California’s Portuguese community may tip the balance of power in Congress
Far away from the centers of power in Washington, a small but sizable Portuguese population has played a meaningful role in shaping the Central Valley
— and the community’s politics could prove crucial in determining which party controls Congress in November’s election.Republicans must hold on to four seats in the House of Representatives to retain a majority.
In deep-blue California,
half a dozen congressional seats are considered swing districts,
and two of them are held by Portuguese Republicans in the Central Valley.Reps. John Duarte and David Valadao continue a tradition of Portuguese farmers representing the region in Congress as Republicans.
Costa, also of Portuguese descent, is running for reelection in a safely Democratic district this November.
Although the Portuguese are now generations deep in the Valley, many are still close to their immigrant family roots.
And in many ways, the story of Portuguese people in California
— just over 350,000, according to the 2020 U.S. census
— follows the arc of many immigrant groups in the U.S.The Portuguese politicians vying to represent the region know their audience. Valadao, whose parents emigrated from the Azores, speaks Portuguese and Spanish, as a result of growing up on a dairy farm alongside Mexican farmworkers, Borges said.
Valadao also rarely pronounces his last name with the nasal Portuguese ending akin to Vala-downg, Borges said.
The only time he heard Valadao use the Portuguese pronunciation was on a trip to Lisbon, Borges recalled, adding,
“It’s always Vala-day-oh here.”
“If David did not have the bond with the Hispanic community, he would not be able to be elected,” Borges said.
Valadao is running against Democratic Assemblymember #Rudy #Salas, the son of farmworkers who would become the region’s first Latino representative in Congress if elected.
The population in Valadao’s 22nd Congressional District is 60% Latino.
Salas, who lost by about 3,100 votes in the 2022 election, has also courted the Portuguese community by promoting Portuguese Heritage Month in the state Legislature.

Hi - This is #Dolores #Huerta
reaching out on behalf of my personal friend, #Rudy #Salas, who is running for Congress in CA-22.Rudy has been devoting his life to our community;
winning overtime for farm workers,
lowering medicine costs,
fighting tirelessly for clean drinking water
and is consistently in the community doing good.𝐑𝐮𝐝𝐲 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐧𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐨𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐧 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐟𝐚𝐫𝐦𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐫 𝐫𝐨𝐨𝐭𝐬.
Meanwhile, we’ve seen a GOP-led Congress make life harder and more expensive for working families.
California farmworkers need you more than ever.
We need to organize and fight to retake the House next November.
This fight starts with supporting my friend Rudy here in the Central Valley of California
– the birthplace of the Farmworkers’ Movement.
Winning this race is going to depend on YOUR support.If you can, please chip in $10 to Rudy’s campaign today.
