Two critical Democratic runoffs in South Texas remain too close to call. Hereโs what comes next.
U.S. Rep. Henry Cuellar, D-Laredo, is leading his challenger, Jessica Cisneros, by 177 votes, while the margin is even smaller in the 15th Congressional District, where Michelle Vallejo is ahead of Ruben Ramirez for the open seat.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi traveled to Laredo a week before the primary to support Cuellar, who sits on the powerful House Appropriations Committee. For that, my family and I thank everyone involved, especially the voters for their display of confidence in my ability to represent Texasโs 28th district,โ Cuellar said in a statement Wednesday. Iโm already in Washington, D.C., back to work and continuing to fight for the constituents in my district.โ---(Original Story)Although Jessica Cisneros won the vote for Texasโ 28th Congressional District in Bexar County, incumbent Henry Cuellar led the race throughout Texas.
