A poll produced by the Barbara Jordan Public Policy Research and Survey Center located at Texas Southern University was released this week, and it did not contain good news for current Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX). Cornyn is now trailing Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton in the Republican primary race, 44 percent to 39 percent.
In fact, data shows that Cornyn has been behind Paxton in most of the early polls up to this point, and only 17 percent of those surveyed remain undecided.
In a three-way race between Paxton, Cornyn, and Wesley Hunt, the numbers are, respectively, 35 percent, 30 percent, 22 percent, with 13 percent unsure.
According to the Statesman, “Cornyn, by contrast, was struggling to shed the RINO (Republican In Name Only) label some GOP activists had tagged him with, on the grounds that he was insufficiently loyal to President Donald Trump. Paxton, a fervent Trump supporter, had even filed court action in the doomed effort to overturn Trump’s 2020 presidential election loss.”
Data indicates that the match between Paxton and Cornyn will be close when voters head to the polls next March, but currently, the attorney general holds the lead and all the advantages.
