Beto done snuck up on Ted. Raised more money too. I’m assuming we’re about to see the RNC break the emergency glass and start airlifting Ted some of that Elliot Broidy, Steve Wynn, and Michael Cohen raised donor money.
You see, Texas is deep red. This should not be close. Hell, I just had to google to double check to see if it was a governor vote year too and there is. Hadn’t even heard about it. Looks to be such a blowout it’s not even worth worrying about. As it should be for Ted.
Ted’s main problem is that he is Ted Cruz, and Beto appears to not be Ted Cruz.
Texas Democrats have to make sure to relay this information to their social circles. There is always a point to voting, but this could move the more unmotivated to the polls.
This is an online poll of registered, not likely voters. Plus the sample is only 550.
In other words, high margin of error is likely with such polls. Not saying Cruz doesn’t have a fight on his hands because he does, but I wouldn’t get too excited about an online poll of registered voters.
I think @Orygun prediction will probably end up being right in the end.
It’s kind of funny this is posted as actual fact. Even the most accurate of polls can be in error.
As I said, I don’t doubt Cruz is going to have to work hard to be reelected. He will benefit from Greg Abbott’s coat tails, as he’s far more popular than Cruz is.
As I said in the other thread Cruz will likely win, but he does have a real likability and credibility problem. The thought of voting for him feels gross.
