Harris lost every poll to Trump in Texas. The difference between 2024 and 2026 is Republicans are in power in all 3 federal branches and all 3 state branches in Texas, yet things have gotten significantly worse. That’s how Republicans have found themselves in this position in Texas.
One interesting thing there (not that I’m taking a side) is that Harris got the share she was polling it’s just the undecideds broke for trump
In the current polls talarico actually is polling at a majority
That was always the “block” democrats had in tilting southern states like Texas and Georgia, they’d always polls at like 47/48 to the repubs 47/48 but then the last 6% would always break for the republicans
I’m not saying the democrats will win but it is interesting talarico is actually polling at 50%, that means if he gets his vote share polled there is nothing to break

As much as I would love to see Texas turn blue, I have my doubts.
This whole thing is giving me the same vibes as Harris in 2024.
Posts on here were high for her. Polls were high for her. Post after post of people voting for her.
Then she lost.
Texas had a chance to get rid of Cruz but they voted him in for 6 more years.
