He’s not running on accomplishments because doesn’t have any.

I still don’t understand why Texas didn’t get rid of Cruz two elections ago. Everyone universally despises him regardless of party.

Colin Allred is an extremely impressive candidate. Ted Cruz is Ted Cruz. Even in deep red Texas, you have to believe that there is a chance sanity will prevail.

Is this the first step towards turning TX blue? Or at least purple to a certain degree? I hope so….

Cancun Cruz in jeopardy? Say it ain’t so. Actually, say it is so.

This is easily the best news I’ve seen all day

I hope Republicans don’t go out to vote because they think he’ll win.

Hard to believe.
Texans love Cruz.
They keep voting him in.
100% to a man and child, they know he fled.
They know all that he’s not done for them.
They still love him.
I hope to eat crow but my heart tells me he’s Texas boy.
Globally, Texas is known for Cruz. He is TX brand.
It’s not cowboys and football and cattle. It’s not.
Ask around the world anywhere about Texas and it’s Ted Cruz in the Top 3 things they say.
I mean I think it’s pathetic and sad that Texas had become this but they wear it with pride.
Again, prove me wrong Texas. Prove me wrong.

Don’t worry. The governor will make sure the votes are there for him.

Some say the race is a toss up. I tend to agree. Everytime I see or hear anything about Ted Cruz, I want to toss up the last thing I ate.

Texas voting for the Canadian instead of the candidate from Texas is a perfect representation of the lone star state. Reminder, that star is a review.

I am here in Austin, and nearly 99% of the ads he’s running are scare tactic ads saying Allred wants to sterilize illegal immigrant children and mandate drag shows on military bases (that’s the newer ad, before that was demanding boys be allowed to play in girl sports and share locker showers). The other 1%? Oh, that’s the embattled Democrat DA in Harris county throwing her support behind him.

I’ve been burned by this cruz lose hope koolaid before, but goddammit I will keep chugging it.

If they are internal polls, how do journalists have access to them?

I wish. Unfortunately, dumbass Abbott has put people in place especially in Harris County to prevent the Blue Wave from ever taking over.
sigh.

Hopefully this turd goes away on this flush.

At this point Cruz isn’t even campaigning on his own merits as a good senator. He’s campaigning mainly on the argument that if he loses than Texas will be won by Harris and that would mean none of the swing states would even matter for the right.
That’s it.

I mailed out my ballot today voting against him!

>It also pointed to the candidates respective favorability ratings, with Cruz at 49 percent viewing him in a favorable light,
49% like Ted Cruz? They must only have asked likely republican voters.

I certainly hope so. I’m voting against his cowardly stupid face the first chance I get. Which is next week.

I’m not getting sucked into this one again. To almost quote a famous Texan, fool me thrice, can’t get fooled again.

Good, fuck him

This would be a great flip… but for some reason Texans keep voting against their own interests, and re-electing this guy.

Is he though? Being a better candidate or just a decent human being really doesn’t matter anymore in our elections

Ted Cruz already shits on his base and they love it. Humiliation kink down in Texas I believe.

I will believe it when I see Snake Cruz losing in November.

This weasel will win one more term, and then hopefully Texas will have flipped blue by 2030.
