Poll finds Trump in dead head-to-head heats with four Dems in Texas

President Trump is in a dead heat with four Democratic presidential candidates in GOP-leaning Texas, according to a new Emerson College poll.

The poll, released Monday, shows Trump in close races in hypothetical general election matchups in Texas with former Rep. Beto O'Rourke (D-Texas), former Vice President Joe Biden, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.).

Biden has the best results against Trump, garnering the support of 50 percent of voters compared to Trump's 49 percent, the poll shows. O'Rourke's results are similar, with him and Trump each getting the support of 50 percent of voters in a hypothetical matchup

is in nationional polls where heavily democratic states like Calif. bring down his poll numbers. Texas has been heavily Republican since Jimmy Carter won it in 1976. If Biden and Beto are running tied or ahead of Trump that is good numbers.

Which leaves more room to grow her numbers there as her well-thought out policy details are aired.

When Texas turns blue, it's curtains for the Republicans. At that point they will try to hop on the "winner by popular vote" bandwagon.

Trump makes idiotic statements and tells out-and-out lies and falsehoods day in and day out but meh, no big deal, it's just Trump being Trumpian again.
