Pollsters are going to have to have their work cut out for them in the next few weeks. Whereas in the 2018 and 2020 elections they undercounted potential Republican voters, this time they appear to have undercounted potential Democrat voters.

Democratic Rep. Henry Cuellar will continue to hold the 28th Congressional District seat he’s held for 18 years.
