Yes, because the opinion of voters in NC, GA and FL have any bearing on how he’s going to do in TX.... (rolling eyes).

I expect Cruz to win when all is said and done, but I also expect that Cruz’s margin of victory will be far less than it should be.

The problem with TX is, and its not unique to TX, but of the 25 Million folks there over 18 years of age, less than 10 million actually voted in 2016.... There is, and has been a complacency in TX for a while when it comes to voting.... and that’s not limited to this race.. but in general... Hopefully it won’t take a D winning statewide down there for the vast majority who aren’t turning out to realize they need to.

You don’t win a massive 551 electoral votes against probably the best field of GOP Primary candidates ever assembled if you are a “miserable not charismatic campaigner”. You just don’t. Don’t matter if it’s in NC,GA, FL or TX.

The primaries are your friend. With Ted Cruz pulling in 300,000 more votes than all three Democratic Party candidates combined, and over TWICE as many votes as O’ Rourke did in the primaries, I think see the elections being that close at all. And the GOP race wasn’t even competitive (Ted Cruz got over 85% of the vote) so there really was no need for a high turnout.
