Democratic Representative Henry Cuellar has secured re-election to the U.S. House, retaining his seat representing Texas' 28th district despite an ongoing federal investigation.
Cuellar, a 10-term congressman who is considered among the most conservative Democrats in the House, was re-elected after defeating Republican challenger Jay Furman, a retired Navy commander. With 89% of votes counted, Cuellar leads with 52.5% compared to Furman's 47.5%, according to NBC News.
