Texas troglodytes are evolving this year!

BIDEN: 46%

TRUMP: 46%

Morning Consult, 9/7/20

Texas is the biggest electoral haul for the Republicans at 38 electoral votes and it hasn't voted for a Democratic presidential candidate since Jimmy Carter in 1976.

If Texas rejects the crooked, New York City scumbag sociopath for re-election, it will be a beautiful statement about the integrity of America that Putin can't buy.

We're thisclose to toppling the horrible reign of the Angry Old White Man. It's within sight. Their hate will die off, but we can't wait for that.

Trump was proof they still have bite. Kill it. Vote.

Orange man, R1.

DLer voters in TX, please make a plan to vote. And a backup plan.

Early voting in Texas is October 13-30. Where I live, we can vote at any early voting site in the county. There are usually 3 or 4 early voting sites within about 5 miles of my home. So if one seems overly crowded, I'll just drive to another. For those who choose to vote on election day, they can also cast their ballot at any voting site in the county that day. Since elections in Texas are coordinated and handled by the counties, I don't know if this option is available everywhere.

R4, that must be nice. Here in Ohio we have ONE early voting location per county, and that's it.

by Anonymousreply 5September 16, 2020 3:28 PM

That's how my state does it, r4.

I will be driving my ballot directly to an early vote center when voting starts, weeks before the election. No WAY will I put my ballot in the mail this year.

This poll is from Sept 9th OP, you are treating it like it is new.

If Texas went blue, I would weep with relief. Beto has been working VERY hard on making that happen.

This is so, so encouraging! #GoBlue #GoGentlemanJoe

If Republicans can't hold Texas, they're in deep, DEEP trouble.

Their party won't recover for 10-12 years.

Winning candidates don't have this much trouble in their base less than 2 months before the election.

Al Gore lost his home state, John McCain lost his home state; Trump's not going to get his home state again. But now he's losing big, GOP slices like Texas and Georgia, too.

That spells L-O-S-E-R.

If the Republicans lost Texas on a consistent basis (versus a one-off because of the freak), they wouldn't need 10 or 12 years to recover; they'd never recover and would be over as a party on the national, presidential, level. The only thing they could possibly do would be to jump on the "eliminate the electoral college" bandwagon FINALLY. If one party can consistently count on California, New York, Texas, and Illinois, it is game over.

I think Trump will win Texas, but it's going to be very close.

Biden isn’t winning Texas. Those “undecided” voters will vote trump. But it bodes well for other states that Texas is so close. I would be shocked if Biden lost AZ

by Anonymousreply 15September 16, 2020 6:13 PM

Very stupid to declare a winner in Texas with half of the polls showing Biden the victor all year.

by Anonymousreply 16September 16, 2020 8:33 PM

I can't wait for early voting in Texas. I'm so eager to vote against the Pumpkin. Gotta throw throw the rotten pumpkin out on November 3rd, so it doesn't keep stinking up the country.

R11 McCain didn’t lose Arizona

The tight race in TX is really interesting. I now think of those numbers of 18-29 voters who are participating this year, and how much they have been early voting in TX. Could they possibly push TX over the top for Dems?

by Anonymousreply 20November 2, 2020 5:03 PM

I don't know, r20. Common was in the Sunnyside neighborhood of Houston this weekend, getting out the vote. Jack Black & Beto are phone banking. Those votes are not taken for granted.

It doesn't look like it will be enough to take out John Cornyn. But those Texas Senate races are getting really tight.

If Texas is competitive for the GOP they are fucked.
