Did you actually read the poll data?

Cruz is still going to win, I'm not sure why anyone would be sad about winning.

Sorry friend, Beto is closing the gap. Great interview last night will only put more folks in Beto's corner.

Ted SAD.

The number of people who are truly undecided at this point in the race is minuscule, everyone knows who they're going to vote for and they aren't going to be swayed this late in the game. If you think a local interview where nothing new is said is going to bridge a 5 point gap you really are insane.

3.6 point gap, 3.26 margin of error

Honestly, I don't think polls are accurately reflecting who's going to be showing up to vote. New voters, young voters, people that haven't voted for years and years.

Ted may be sad on November 7th. But at least he's "Tough as Texas" so he will be fine.

BTW, not a single Beto supporter in these threads has said that Beto is going to win. We know the numbers are against us. But it sure is getting close.

Let's see if you're sad on November 7th.

Sorry, so it could be a 6.86 point gap even based on your own poll, not just 5 points.

Either way, the Democrats have nothing to lose. If Beto wins, historic victory. If Beto loses, the display still shows strong enough Democratic power that the state can be competitive.

^^^ This is why I don't respect or take serious the nature of American Politics.

You people treat it like it's a common football game...

But no result has come out yet. So until then, hope for the best for your candidate.
