DescriptionSAN ANTONIO - A second recount of Democratic primary ballots in Webb County on Friday slashed challenger Henry Cuellar's lead over District 28 incumbent U.S. Rep. Ciro Rodriguez from 203 votes to a mere 58 votes.

The court-ordered recount in Cuellar's home county, which also included inspection of ballots for signs of tampering, ended with Cuellar at 12,747 votes, while Rodriguez had 2,429.

That compares to 12,894 for Cuellar and 2,431 for Rodriguez after the first recount in Webb County on March 30.
