A new poll shows Democratic Texas Senate candidate James Talarico leading Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton ® by 5 points over a month before the November midterm elections.
The Texas Public Opinion Research (TPOR) poll released Friday showed Talarico with 49 percent support from voters and Paxton with 44 percent support, with 3 percent saying they are undecided. This new poll is the second in a monthly series of polling results released by TPOR. Last month’s poll showed Talarico’s ahead by 6 points, 48-42.
Independent voters favor Talarico by double digits, 58-26, with 5 percent who say they are undecided. Paxton holds the lead among white voters and voters 55 years and above. Talarico leads among Latino voters, Black voters, voters under 55, college-educated voters, men and women, the poll stated.
Isn’t “We can win! Get to the polls and vote!” a more effective message?
I think “we will actually represent you instead of billionaires and Israel” is a better message. See: the wild success of Mamdani. But for $ome reason the democrat$ ju$t can’t $eem to manage that.
That doesn’t having anything to do with getting people to vote though…

I mean there are a bazillion things tried with Beto. Just because he didn’t win doesn’t mean zero of them worked.
When someone says “Don’t listen to the polls, get out and vote” it’s because we lived an experience where polls were wrong and people didn’t vote. It doesn’t matter what message is best. If you are thinking of not voting because the polls show candidate is a shoe in - then you arent paying attention.
What are you talking about? People say dumb shit for all kinds of dumb reasons.
