What Went Down During The May 24 Primary Elections

In Texas’s 28th District, ABC News has Rep. Henry Cuellar now leading Jessica Cisneros, 53 percent to 47 percent, with roughly 63 percent of the vote recorded. Cuellar’s boost likely came from recently counted votes in Starr County, which swung more than 50 points to the right in 2020.

Notably, too, Nate, it’s a race where Trump sunk $2.5 million of his own campaign cash. That’s something he doesn’t usually do in races where he’s already endorsed a candidate. In other words, it’ll be hard for Trump to downplay that he didn’t care about this race.

And for Perdue! The man is a former Georgia Senator. This is not someone with no background in politics who threw his hat in on a whim!
