Look at the numbers. If they gave a sht about Cornyn vs Paxton, their numbers would be what ours are. Their numbers would be HIGHER since there are more republicans in the state! Our numbers are wiping their numbers out because they are crossing over to vote in our primary. They know perfectly well that if Talarico wins, we could flip that seat. If Jasmine wins, they've won. I'm literally sick looking at that data. We have no chance if she's the one who advances.

This poll was taken before Colbert show LetMyPeopleVote Feb 26 #55

This poll was before Cobert's interview with Talarico. nature-lover Feb 25 #8

Thanks for that context. applegrove Feb 25 #11

Sure. Don't know how much difference it made, but makes the race more interesting. nature-lover Feb 25 #14

This poll was of only 369 people pinkstarburst Feb 25 #23

Here are some other polls LetMyPeopleVote Feb 25 #37

It's pretty unclear at this point by the crazy polling--- Jack Valentino Feb 25 #48

I'm sure repukes are happy about that Skittles Feb 25 #38

While some Texas R's hope for her to be nominated, presuming her to be the weaker candidate, Jack Valentino Feb 25 #42

Almost like Crockett could change the Texans hearts applegrove Feb 25 #43

Even Rethugs/MAGA could fail to turn out to vote, Jack Valentino Feb 25 #47

Looks like a garbage poll NoRethugFriends Feb 26 #52

Here is another poll that shows a different result LetMyPeopleVote Feb 26 #54
