Clinton only four points behind in Texas.

[Jim Beard]

I can't believe it. I am perplexed why she is losing in El Paso?

The survey, commissioned by WFAA-TV and Texas TEGNA television stations, shows Trump leading Hillary Clinton by 47 percent to 43 percent. The margin of error is four percent.

….

Regionally, Trump leads by eight points in North Texas, which includes Dallas and Fort Worth and 41 surrounding counties. In Houston and 59 surrounding counties making up east and southeast Texas, Trump leads Clinton by six points.

….

Trump has his strongest support in west Texas, including El Paso and 87 counties – leading his Democratic challenger by 15 points.

But Clinton is ahead in Austin, San Antonio and Central Texas. She also leads by nine points in the Rio Grande Valley.

While Texans don’t agree with Hillary Clinton much on the issues, 63% of respondents said that it is ‘very’ or ‘somewhat’ important that all candidates release their tax returns.

Clinton Gaining in Texas

1. I think she will win TX.

Another 3 weeks of Creepergate will make it happen.

3. If it weren't for the cesspool of welfare farmers in West Texas,

she would win. Media has a lot to do with it.

7. 20% of total statewide vote is in Harris County which will go blue this cycle

[Jim Beard]

2. I just don't understand ElPaso

It has always been very heavy for Democrats by landslide proportions.

4. Posted here a few weeks ago - he loses any state he's not +5

In polls

I could possibly find the thread. It was posted by someone who was told that by a sports stats person who'd been delving into polls.

5. Did they say why ElPaso is not supporting Clinton?

It has been a reliably Democratic city usually voting 2 to 1 for Democrats but Hillary is behind there.

6. This election may have long term consequences for Texas

Texas may advance its switch to a blue state by a couple of election cycles

[Thrill]

8. Put a little money in there. See what happens

9. A NY elitist who rooted for the housing crash deserves to lose TX

Trumpers want to blame someone for losing their homes and jobs, they should look at people like Trump.

Texas is very diverse and their demographics have been shifting through migration. I know several folks who moved to Austin and Houston.

10. I know!!! Almost tied. Nuts.
