Indicted Rep. Henry Cuellar’s siblings got mixed results in their respective primary elections in Texas on Tuesday night, with one win and one loss.

Rosie Cuellar lost in the runoff for the Democratic nomination for battleground state House district TX-80, while her brother Martin Cuellar won his primary runoff for another term as Webb County sheriff, a position he’s held since 2008.

“Thank you, Laredo and Webb County! Your continued support is greatly appreciated. Here’s to 4 more years,” Martin Cuellar posted to Facebook.
