And yes people I’m aware that “the South” is not strictly defined. You could also include southern VA, NC, LA, etc. and the point would still hold

I don't consider Beto as from the South. El Paso is regionally in the Southwest. It's right across the border from New Mexico. Has more in common with AZ/NM than most of Texas. (And whether you can even describe Texas as part of "The South" is debatable)

Texas is kind of a region unto itself, which is why I wouldn't describe Julian Castro as from "The South" either. (And yes, once again, I know these regional descriptions are amorphous). At the very least you can say there are no Dem candidates from the Deep South

Like the reference to Northern Florida. In Tampa many say anything north of Tampa is South Georgia.

Beto is close, being from TX which belongs in the modern south to some extent. I think that's why the Dems wanted him to win so bad in 18. A Dem that can compete in the South shores up third electoral weaknesses.

El Paso is not Texas and Texas is not the south. Parts of Texas are the south though, like Houston and Texarkana

Pre-Obama, the conventional wisdom was that the Democrats' best chance to win was with a southerner.
