Dream on, Nancy. Paxton wins easily.

And I live in North La but have business interests in E TX.

IF the poll is even slightly accurate, it has very little to do with “MAGA” and just about everything to do with Ken Paxton himself.

I still think Paxton wins. If he doesn’t and freak Talarico takes the seat, the Republican primary voters can look in the mirror for something to be mad at.

I doubt it. This has more to do with Paxton's personal failures and less to do with national politics.

Yeah, just like he lost those 3 state wide races for AG! Remember how that polling turned out? Remember how great Beta’s poll numbers were? Remember when Collin Allred was going to win based on poll numbers? Or how about MJ Hagar? Oh her poll numbers were going to help turn Texas purple!

And your position support is based on OP-Ed’s, blogs and Reddit? Let me guess the DMN, AAS, Chron, the alternative weeklies all show polls favoring Talarico. Well that’s not how elections are decided in Texas(at least for now).

You are not helping your case against the guy who called you stupid.

If Republicans were to lose this seat for any reason, this will be right up there with one of the biggest blunders of this administration.

Should have just left the other old fuker Cornyn alone since he has a cleaner background.

These California and Tech weirdos will eventually turn this State Blue I’m afraid.

Just hope it’s not yet.

You do realize that LBJ was elected to Congress multiple times before the CIA made him President, correct? Not technically state office but a statewide election and corrupt to the bone.

Don't feed the troll.

You are right though. Plus...The poll is bullshite.

It would have been a lost closer for Paxton and Letlow if people were tired of maga and Trump.

That is undeniable.

No, I don’t.

Nor did any reputable polls as we neared Election Day show Beto beating Cruz either.

Smart people know polls can be twisted. No need for you to make shite up.

Normals don’t respond to pollsters. Far left libtards seek out pollsters. Hence a permanent 10 point bias…..

That explains why Susan Collins always polls poorly but wins convincingly.

You’re bringing up a wholly false and fabricated narrative about Talarico.
It’s pathetic, but the MAGA brand alone
ain’t cutting it….

Not legit. Talarico loses by 5-6%.

But let’s believe that Paxton is going to lose, because the polls say so.

The DNC/MSM has done a masterful job at making literally every political issue about “stopping the bad orange man”. Dem voters no longer vote for a Dem, they just vote against Trump. And R voters are apathetic because Trump has not been aggressive enough with his anti corruption, illegal immigration, or holding deep state traitors accountable.

Turnout wil decide key November elections. Rs are not currently up to the task IMHO.

The same polls that showed Hilldawg and old word salad leading. These polls are not real. they are a tool, trying to get people to go with the winner.

Rupert left his empire to his lib kids. Them being sneaky in their psyop bullshite was called by Ray Charles and Little Stevie Wonder.

Because the GOP delivered absolutely nothing they ran on. The Iran war is fricking retarded and being fought on behalf of a foreign power while the cost of living in America skyrockets and the president tells us we’re in the golden age!

Also the demographics of Texas are nearly identical to California. Majority Mexican. This is the future of America.
