Over 1500 people packed the Shrine Auditorium near Stone Oak Monday afternoon during a rally for Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz.
Just one day before Super Tuesday, Cruz is visiting Texas’ major cities in a last minute attempt to sway voters. With his wife Heidi and two daughters next to him, Cruz took the stage to a standing ovation and patriotic country music.
“This election is going to focus on three issues: jobs, freedom, and security,” Cruz told the supporters. “The heart of our economy is small business; you wanna hammer the economy you hammer small businesses. You wanna lift the economy then have the federal government lift their boots of the necks of small businesses.”
