Poll: Trump statistically tied with Biden, Sanders, O'Rourke in Texas
By John Bowden - 02/28/19 04:28 PM EST

President Trump's support in Texas is at a statistical tie with several potential 2020 challengers, including one who has already announced a bid, according to a poll released Thursday.

In the Quinnipiac University survey of Texas voters, Trump takes 47 percent of the vote in Texas in hypothetical matchups with former Vice President Joe Biden, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), and former Rep. Beto O'Rourke (D-Texas), who received 46 percent, 45 percent, and 46 percent support from voters in the poll, respectively.

Each of those hypothetical contests fall within the poll's margin of error, which was 3.4 percentage points. In addition, Trump sat within single digits of other announced 2020 Democratic challengers in the poll, including former San Antonio Mayor Julian Castro and Sens. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) and Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.)

Be careful on this one, Bigun.

I sense that down in Texas by the Rio Grande, the times they are a-changin'.

Because... the DEMOGRAPHICS, they are a-changin', too!
