New poll shows Biden with one-point lead on Trump in Texas

A new poll of Texas voters shows Vice President Joe Biden ahead of President Trump by a percentage point, 45 percent to 44 percent.
The poll from Quinnipiac University is the latest to show a tightening race in Texas, a state that Trump carried handily four years ago and that Democrats have become increasingly eager to win. A similar poll of Texas voters released last month showed just as close of a race albeit with Trump in the lead.
But the latest Quinnipiac poll suggests that Trump has largely stalled out in Texas. While support for Biden ticked upwards to 45 percent from 43 percent in last month’s poll, Trump’s support remained steady at 44 percent. Likewise, Trump’s approval rating stands at 45 percent in the state, the same as it was in June.
excerpt:
The Quinnipiac University poll’s findings are based on responses from 880 self-identified registered voters in Texas gathered from July 16-20. It has a margin of error of +/-3.3 percentage points.
