Clinton, Trump neck-and-neck in new Texas poll

Washington (CNN)Hillary Clinton is narrowing in on Donald Trump's lead in Texas, according to a new poll released on Tuesday.

Trump leads Clinton 41% to 38%, according to the latest University of Houston survey. Libertarian presidential nominee Gary Johnson stands in third place with 4% support, followed by Green Party nominee Jill Stein at 1%, with 11% undecided. GOP presidential candidates have won Texas by no less than 11 percentage points since 2000, according to a memo accompanying the poll results. Democrats last won Texas in a presidential race in 1976.

The poll also showed that, despite Trump's narrow lead, 53% of Texas voters thought Clinton would be elected as the next US president compared to 23% of voters who said they thought it would be Trump.

The Hobby School of Public Affairs surveyed 1,000 likely Texas voters between October 7-15 and has a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points. In another poll published Tuesday, St. Norbert College found Clinton ahead of Trump in Wisconsin, 47% to 39%, followed by Stein at 3% and Johnson at 1%.

The St. Norbert College poll surveyed 664 likely voters in Wisconsin between October 13-16 and has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.8 percentage points.

I’m here in Texas and I can vouch for Trump. He’s up by at least 10 here.

Fox snooze just showed a map of Texas in PINK and up for grabs. If this is psych ops they are doing a great job at it with moderates.
Stay the course folks- vote Trump!

It’s hype to keep the Hillary folks from getting bored and staying home.

This won’t be any closer than Abbott and abortion Barbie. Trump wins by double digits.

In a way I find this encouraging. If they’re lying about Texas this much we must be in great shape as well everywhere else.

This is true... biting off more than they can chew here.

Another fishy thing is polls that have Hill down only 2% from Donald with men.

If you want to know what’s up, watch the candidate travel schedules. Trump is in CO today and PA Friday. They have pence in NC, CO, and NM this week. That is correct, New Mexico.

This should give anyone serious pause....about every single state and national poll that shows Clinton leading.

Trump has more chance of winning California than Clinton does of winning Texas. Zero in both cases.

Sounds like Texas was about to experience some voter fraud. I think every time we hear Clinton is close in a traditionally red state, that is where voter fraud is set to take place. These polls, with the help of media coverage, are designed to make her ‘win’ in those states less questionable.

I live in Austin, the liberal armpit of Texas, and there is almost NO Hillary support here! There is a decent amount of Sanders supporters, but I've talked to some of them, and they can't stand Hillary!

Trump will win Texas by AT LEAST 15%! You can take that to the bank. If he wins by less than that, there was MAJOR fraud going on.

It’s called the usual Psych ops games suckers .

It’s the same crap they do every election season.

the GOP is found so bad Texas and GA and AZ are in play.

These same TX poll trolls had Davis ahead for Gov.

The fact anyone considers this as real is absurd .
