Former President Donald Trump holds a nearly double-digit lead over President Joe Biden in a potential general election race in Texas as former Gov. Nikki Haley (R-SC) trails Biden in a separate hypothetical match-up, per a poll.
The Redfield Wilton Strategies poll, conducted for Newsweek and published on Wednesday, found that 44 percent of Texas voters would back Trump in a five-way race for the White House, placing him nine points above Biden, who sits at 35 percent.

Nikki lost to “None Of The Above” yesterday in Nevada. If the Republicans don’t win Texas they have no hope.
Nicky Hillary.
Nikki “NOTA” Haley.
None. Of. The. Above.
I believe Trump has a bigger lead in Texas over MushBrain.
Never heard of Interactive Polling Group.
It's unlikely that ANY Republican could lose to Biden in Texas. (Maybe Chris Christie, but the whole state would probably stay home if he somehow became the Republican nominee.)
While polls once showed Trump and DeSantis tied in Texas, they now suggest the primary is all but over here. Trump leads Nikki Haley by a landslide.

What happened next in Texas is much like what happened elsewhere: Republican officials started 2023 open to a Trump alternative but ultimately came around as DeSantis underwhelmed and Trump appeared increasingly inevitable. Those endorsements — their order and intensity — could prove to be consequential for those Republicans in the country’s biggest red state as the famously transactional president and his allies look to the future.
“They’re a complete joke,” Hunt said of Trump’s Texas endorsers in recent months. “If you’re endorsing President Trump by the time he’s up 60 points, you’re not a serious person.”
While polls once showed Trump and DeSantis tied in Texas, they now suggest the primary is all but over here. A survey released last month by the University of Houston found Trump leading former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley 80% to 19%, with just 1% undecided.
