"SNIP.....

A new Dallas Morning News-University of Texas at Tyler poll in a Texas finds Donald Trump and Joe Biden deadlocked in the presidential race, 43% to 43%.

1. Wow! I really do hope we take Texas!

At 38 electoral votes, that one state could give us more than Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin put together.

2. A close race in Texas will mean a landslide win nationally forBiden.

3. I don't have a lot of faith in the UT-Tyler poll,

but since there are other polls showing a tight race I can't help to get my hopes up.

I'm also looking forward to rub the Charlie Sheen "winning" line in my brother's face come November since he has used it repeatedly with me.

6. I can't imagine how anyone, unless they've been in a coma for the past 3 years, could vote for Trump

7. After a few weeks of unfettered CV spread, when

they realize Donnie Bodybags is actively thwarting their efforts to stop the spread, I am guessing they will be very surprised.

It'll take a few weeks after that, but I bet they'll finally turn on him in a big way.

8. Dems *really* need to watch Trump/minions for TX fraud

Back in 2016, as I watched pre-election TX polling, it was “within margin of error” for a long time. Trump never brought up TX on his campaign trail...until those same polls showed a sudden 10 point lead. Then he was referring to TX left and right.
Fast forward to Election Day: Texas Tribune news reported that officials from the **Russian consulate** in Houston asked local election officials if they could monitor Houston polling sites on Election Day. Request was denied.

Trump never did get further than that 10 point spread. That is what he won by in TX. Last time the Repuke-Dem spread was that narrow was when Pres Clinton ran.

Trump minions knew in 2016 that Donald had a TX problem. Their republican crown jewel was in jeopardy. Meanwhile, the MSM was all focused on the swing states. Cuz, ya know, of course TX is a red state. Or is it?

Here’s hoping national Dems keep a close eye on TX Election Day and the months leading up to it this time around....who knows what Trump minions will do to not lose their crown jewel.

9. In Texas, a tie goes to the Republicans

Cheating and electoral sleaze are S.O.P to them. A 1% win by Biden goes to Trump. A 2% won by Biden goes to Trump. A 3% or 4% win by Biden will be a cliffhanger, and a 5% win by Biden can start to be considered to be beyond reach of Abbott's electoral fraud machine.

When a serious majority of the Texas State Legislature, along with a Democratic Governor, a Democratic Lt. Governor, and a Democratic Secretary of State, are behind serious electoral reform, THEN we might have a situation where the winner of the election in Texas will actually be credited fairly, independently of which Party they belong to.

10. +100...n/t

11. True - nt

12. Love it.

13. I have to tip my hat

to everyone down there working to make a purple Texas possible. If a normally red state like TX stays this close throughout this summer, November 3rd could be super fun nationally.

14. Texas

is where Trump talking shit about the Bush's is going to bite him in the ass.

The rest of the country might give a shit about them, but there are plenty in Texas still loves the Bush's.
