Cruz expands lead over Allred in Texas Senate race

by Al Weaver - 10/16/24 1:18 PM ET

Sen. Ted Cruz (R) has expanded his lead over Rep. Colin Allred (D) in the Texas Senate race as he attempts to lock down a third term in office, according to a new poll.

A University of Houston survey released Wednesday showed that Cruz holds a 4-point advantage over Allred, a three-term House member, putting his lead outside of the 2.7 point margin of error. This is up from a 2 percentage point lead he held in mid-August in the same poll.

According to the latest poll, Cruz is viewed favorably by 50 percent and unfavorably by 48 percent of surveyed voters. Forty-six percent of Texans view Allred favorably compared to 42 percent who view him unfavorably.

   This from The Swill who just today updated their poll showing Trump/Harris dead even. Had Harris up 5% last week.

I hope and pray that the polls are correct.
