DALLAS - Six days before Super Tuesday, Ted Cruz and Donald Trump are now tied in Texas, according to a new public opinion poll commissioned by WFAA-TV.
Cruz and Trump both had 32 percent support from likely and actual GOP primary voters, with a 3.9 percent margin of error.
It is the most recent survey of Texas voters and the first one to show Cruz no longer leading in his home state.
“He’s fading,†said Cal Jillson, professor of political science at Southern Methodist University, of Ted Cruz’s candidacy. “Trump has proven to be stronger and more resilient than anyone expected.â€
Marco Rubio is a distant third in the WFAA Texas TEGNA poll with 17 percent, John Kasich has 6 percent, Ben Carson has 5 percent and another 5 percent of respondents remain undecided, the poll revealed.
On the Democratic side, Hillary Clinton has double the support of Bernie Sanders with 61 percent compared to his 32 percent. Seven percent of likely or actual Democratic voters were undecided.

All over the place. Cruz will be dine if he loses Texas.
The Dem side of that poll confirms my view that Hildabeast crushes Burney across the south.
Agreed. However, I'd want Cruz to stay in through March 15 to syphon off votes from foam-boy Rubio.
All day long, “Cruz is ahead in Texas”, its his effing state for god’s sake, and at Best he a couple of points ahead from a New Yorker. Pitiful.
Uh oh...
Yep. Minorities aren't feeling the Bern. And the acrimony over at DU regarding this is endlessly entertaining.
I’d actually be happy with a narrow 2 point loss for Trump. Give Cruz the victory and bragging rights, keep him in the race, but come out even on delegates.
O’boy. Not good for Cruz. This appears to be a Survey/USA poll looking at the chart. Also this quote from the article.

Maybe I’ll check it out. I could use a good laugh.
This means Trump is closing in ... good news
Even if Cruz wins he loses. He's going to have to spend both time and money defending Texas as opposed to trying to compete in the other primaries.
Last I heard, Cruz was beating trump by double digits.

Oh but what about the Greg Abbott endorsement?
Aw hell, that idiot Scarborough says he is already done.
Or dine :)
Cruz indeed will be dined on. Trump has his own army of velociraptors to finish the job. ;). A tually this poll and the Emerson poll are close. Cruz+1 vs tie.
“Last I heard, Cruz was beating trump by double digits.”
That poll had Cruz at 35%. However it ran for 10 days ending on the 20th the day of South Carolina. A lot has happened since.
Black Jew-hate is widespread. The divide between blacks on the Hillary side, versus young whites on the Bernie side, has the potential to create a fracture within the Dem party. Particularly if Bernie's supporters see the nomination being stolen by fraud.
Did you take as shower after going there???
