Buxo expressed her enthusiasm for campaigning in Pennsylvania earlier on Tuesday, referencing her previous campaign activities in Allentown for Pennsylvania’s Republican Senate candidate, Dave McCormick. In a recent tweet, she urged Pennsylvania residents to participate in the upcoming election, highlighting Republican priorities: “fighting to lower costs, secure the border and keep us safe.”
Additionally, Buxo reached out to Puerto Rican Americans across the U.S. in a social media message, voicing confidence in Trump’s commitment to the island territory. “Don’t have the slightest doubt [about] @realDonaldTrump,” she tweeted in Spanish. “He is the firm leader that PR needs to get us out of territorial limbo and do justice. In 2016 he expressed support for respecting the will of the electorate and providing a constitutionally valid process. TODAY IT IS REAFFIRMED.”
Reports indicate today’s event in Allentown will see substantial support from Puerto Rican attendees, according to NBC News’ Dasha Burns.
