A new survey from the Lone Star State shows Bernie Sanders opening up a 6-point lead over his competitors in Texas; one of the largest states in the primary process and a major prize in securing the party’s nomination.

“The poll, conducted by polling firm Latino Decisions for Univision and the University of Houston’s Center for Mexican American Studies, shows 26 percent of Texans support Sanders in the Democratic presidential primary, while former Vice President Joe Biden and former New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg are tied in second place with 20 percent support each,” reports The Hill.

“Sanders is also leading in most polls in California, a state with a heavy Latino presence that will provide the biggest pledged delegate haul on Super Tuesday,” adds the website. “Although no Democrat has won a statewide election in Texas since 1994, the state has been targeted by Democrats for the general election.”
