Austin, TX A Crosswind Media & Public Relations statewide survey of 1000 likely voters in Texas (MoE +/- 3%) shows Republican Donald Trump leading 51 percent to Democrat Joe Bidens 44 percent. The same poll shows Texas senior Senator John Cornyn leading Democratic challenger MJ Hegar by a difference of 48 percent to 39 percent, although there is greater uncertainty toward the Senate candidates with 10 percent of respondents remaining undecided. The poll also identifies gaps between male and female voters for both races and reports attitudes toward the response of both President Donald Trump and Governor Greg Abbott to the COVID-19 pandemic. Results also show Trump and Cornyn with modest leads among self-identified Hispanic voters and strong support among male and White voters.

(3,579 posts)Democrats are motivated, Republicans are demotivated. Texas is achievable, and even if we fall short, we can cause the GOP to burn through cash to keep it at the expense of other states.

(32,017 posts)But that sounds CLOSE to accurate to me. I suspect that Biden is higher than 44% (maybe 46%) but still outside the polls MOE.

Hilarious and ridiculous. I don't know how they can even type a sentence like that. Hispanics have shifted somewhat but anything close to GOP edge. Hillary won Hispanics 61-34 in Texas and Beto won that block 64-35 over Cruz
