Is Texas Senator Ted Cruz at risk of losing his seat? Russell Payne of The New York Sun reports that polls show Cruz is vulnerable. He writes:
New polling out of Texas shows Vice President Harris closing the gap on President Trump in the deep red state, with Senator Cruz leading in his re-election campaign by only a few points.
The new survey from the University of Houston Hobby School of Public Affairs found that Trump leads Ms. Harris in a multicandidate race 49.5 percent to 44.6 percent.
The data are a significant improvement over President Biden’s numbers in the last survey the pollster conducted before he dropped out, when just 40.3 percent of respondents said they planned to vote for Mr. Biden. Trump garnered 48.5 percent in that survey.
The survey contacted 1,365 likely voters and reported a margin of error of plus or minus 2.65 percent.
The recent survey also found that Mr. Cruz leads in his Senate race 46.5 percent to 44.5 percent against the Democratic nominee, Colin Allred, indicating that the Senate race there might be closer than previously expected.
