A recent PPP poll found that the 2016 presidential race in Texas is surprising close. Hillary Clinton could move Texas closer to turning blue as Rand Paul and Chris Christie each lead her by just 4 points.
Seeing as neither of those fine gentlemen are going to be the republican nominee, I am thinking that Hillary has a good chance. What is needed to counteract the inevitable republican cheating is for there to be massive voter registration and education about what ID is required on election day. Hillary people who want to do something useful can start on that.

(135,425 posts)You need to find a more recent cite for this information. Much changes in 2 years.
Not saying it couldn't happen but this doesn't prove anything. It's useless material.
Also, you need to post links when you cite exerpts.
This is where you got that:
