6 Democratic candidates are beating Trump in a new Texas poll
The Week ^ | September 10, 2019 | Tim O'Donnell

President Trump might not want to look at a new poll conducted by Univision and the University of Houston.

The survey shows six Democratic presidential candidates leading the incumbent in Texas. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) has the healthiest lead over Trump — a 48 percent to 42 percent edge. Meanwhile, former Vice President Joe Biden has Trump beat 47 percent to 43 percent, while Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) is ahead 44 percent to 42 percent. Those three, frequently considered the front-runners in the Democratic primaries, don't come as a huge surprise, but Sens. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) and Cory Booker (D-N.J.) also hold slight advantages. Former Housing Secretary and homegrown Texan Julián Castro is the sixth candidate that Texas would seemingly support over Trump; he has a three point lead over the commander-in-chief.

Is there any reason to believe any poll nowadays?

‘Cause Texas really wants socialism and Hollyweird and all of the other rotten and corrupt trappings related to those things, eh?

Check the poll internals for democRAT over-sample equal to the desired result.

...a new poll conducted by Univision and the University of Houston

Wanna bet that this poll focused on only a couple of key demographics?

The liberal media tries this every election. In fact they just tried it yesterday in the North Carolina election. They come out with polls claiming the democrat is up by a substantial margin and/or "surging" right before the election, then election day rolls around and, bam, the Republican wins. The goal of course is to suppress Republican turnout and motivate democrat voters.

Look at Wendy Davis in 2014. All the polls claimed the race was neck and neck and the liberal media was hailing her as the great democrat savior who would turn the state blue. Then election day rolled around and she not only lost, but lost by 15 points. It was NEVER a close race, but the media knew if they leaked the real polling, democrat voters would be discouraged and sit out the election.

Worthless poll sample.

The poll was conducted between Aug. 31 and Sept. 6 on the phone and online. It consisted of 1,004 voters and the margin of error was 3.1

Not Likely voters or even Registered Voters. Just "voters"

Should tell you all you need to know.

Julián Castro beating Trump?
No one has ever heard of this commie outside of parts of TX.
Buttplug wouldn’t even take his home State.

Probably using the same polling data as the nonsense WP poll.

“HOGWASH”......Trump wins in a massive landslide victory in 2020...period!!!!

Folks....I never do this because I respect the right of people to tune in to what they wish to see at all times...but, CNN has become such low life America Hater and “Fake News” fountain...I am suggesting that all Americans ignore the faux Democrat Party 2020 POTUS, debate Thursday evening, September 12, 2019. Why? Because it is a waste of time and boring to boot!!! My advice “Broom It”...it will also be a major failure on its own, just like the CNN “Climate Change Town Hall) was the boring, fake news, joke of the year!!!

Looks to me like they are scared to death and must put out Fake Polls to help their self esteem before it all goes up in smoke next year.
