TX-28: EMILY's List endorses primary challenger Jessica Cisneros
TX-28: On Thursday, EMILY’s List endorsed attorney Jessica Cisneros’ primary campaign against Rep. Henry Cuellar, who is one of the worst members of the Democratic caucus.
Cuellar hasn’t faced a serious intra-party opponent in over a decade in this 58-38 Clinton seat in the Laredo area, and he only outraised Cisneros by a modest $376,000 to $318,000 during the third quarter. However, Cuellar has been stockpiling money for a long time, and he ended September with a massive $3.2 million to $292,000 cash-on-hand lead. The primary is in March.
