A new Emerson College survey of likely voters in Texas finds gremlin-faced coward Senator Ted Cruz leading Dem Congressman Colin Allred 48 to 47 percent while convicted felon former President Trump leads Vice President Kamala Harris 53 to 46 percent. Independent voters break for Allred 47 to 42 percent while Trump leads Harris among the same group by 49 to 47 percent.
This is probably Emerson’s final poll of the Lone Star State in 2024 and by now there’s no question of whether Allred is running a close race. We’ve well established by now Emerson’s pro-GOP bias and it’s time to actually take seriously the possibility that Allred could pull this off. On Tuesday we’d been a little puzzled as to why Harris is heading to Houston for a rally on Friday, we’ve since learned that Allred will be taking the stage with her, which tells us that Harris probably has some internal polling showing Cruz to be even more vulnerable than maybe even this public polling suggests. The fact that Trump is running that far ahead of him with indie voters and overall is another clue.
