Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
Univ, of Texas/Texas Tribune state poll: Biden 26%, Warren 18%, O'Rourke 14%, Sanders 12%
https://www.texastribune.org/2019/09/11/beto-orourke-falls-behind-joe-biden-elizabeth-warren-texas/Former U.S. Rep. Beto ORourke has slipped to third place among Democratic voters in his home states presidential primary, behind former Vice President Joe Biden and U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, according to the latest University of Texas/Texas Tribune Poll.
On the eve of the third round of presidential debates to be held on Thursday in Houston, Biden had the support of 26% of voters, followed by Warren at 18%, ORourke at 14% and U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont at 12%. In the June 2019 UT/TT Poll, Biden had 23%, ORourke had 15%, Warren was at 14% and Sanders had 12%.

None of the 16 other candidates in the survey got support from more 5% of Texas Democratic voters. Julián Castro, former Cabinet secretary and mayor of San Antonio, had the support of 3% (unchanged from June), which tied him for seventh with tech executive Andrew Yang of California and placed him behind U.S. Sen. Kamala Harris of California, at 5%, and Pete Buttigieg, mayor of South Bend, Indiana, at 4%.

Voters who said beating Trump was the most important issue favored Biden and Warren, in that order, over other candidates. Those who had health care at the top ranked Biden and Sanders highest, and those with gun control at the top put ORourke and Biden atop their candidate rankings.
