O'Rourke, Biden hold narrow leads over Trump in Texas
By Tal Axelrod - 09/19/19 12:16 PM EDT

Former Texas Rep. Beto O’Rourke (D) and former Vice President Joe Biden have narrow leads over President Trump in the Lone Star State, according to a new poll, as Democrats hope to make it competitive in the 2020 race.

O’Rourke has a 2.3-percentage-point advantage in a hypothetical match-up with Trump, according to a new University of Texas at Tyler poll, with 42 percent of registered voters backing the former congressman and 39.7 percent supporting the president.

Biden beats Trump by 1.6 points, getting the support of 39.6 percent of registered voters compared with 38 percent for Trump.


Biden is aided by a roughly 12-point advantage over Trump among Texas independents, while O’Rourke has a roughly 9-point edge over Trump among the same group.

I know it's "just another poll".
Probably not to be relied upon.

But there are those of us here who see Texas "changing".
Cruz v. O'Rourke was evidence of that.
Make any excuse you wish as to why it was so close.

But 'way down by the Rio Grande, I hear the sound of firebells ringing in the night...

Total BS is what it is.
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

   You Briefers underestimate beto, next week he's gonna release his policy on 'Free Sex' and will quickly outpoll the Chinese guy offering 'Free Money' and it will be curtains for everyone, including Trump.
No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.
