Republican incumbent Sen. Ted Cruz has a 54 45 percent likely voter lead over U.S. Rep. Beto ORourke, his Democratic challenger, in the Texas Senate race, according to a Quinnipiac University Poll released today.
This is the first survey of likely voters in this race by the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University Poll, and can not be compared to earlier surveys of registered voters. Among Texas likely voters who choose a candidate, 93 percent say their mind is made up. That includes 94 percent of Cruz backers and 92 percent of ORourke backers.
Women are divided as 50 percent back Cruz and 48 percent back ORourke. Men back Cruz 57 42 percent. White voters back Cruz 66 32 percent. ORourke leads 97 3 percent among black voters and 54 45 percent among Hispanic voters.
Republicans back Cruz 94 6 percent, as Democrats go to ORourke 94 4 percent. Independent voters are divided with 51 percent for ORourke and 47 percent for Cruz.

“Polls are rigged to manipulate voters. Now they must think its time to make Cruz voters feel complacent and scare Beto voters.”
Bing bing bing bing bing!! We have a winner for the most ridiculous comment of the day!
Exactly. Go vote!
I want to see my liberal neighbors sobbing in pain as they pull up their Beto yard signs on Nov 7.
Keep the momentum going!
P I N G!!
His gun views alone should finish him in Texas. But I must confess, I’ve never seen a Republican up nine in a poll before.
How stupid are Hispanics that choose a fake Hispanic candidate over a real one. SMH.....
YAYessss!!
It may not be an abortion Barbie whippin' but it'll end up being a serious loss for the commie.
Bingo and ditto.
The Dems are still determined to win and fighting very hard for their candidates. But I hope this poll is accurate, a pleasant surprise.
It’s all a matter of two letters in the alphabet and nothing else: D or R.
No matter what any poll says, VOTE for Cruz. Crawl through glass. Do not trust these people and become complacent.
It says a lot that the pollsters had to back the f off immediately.
Gave MattD a mountain of shit about the Betomania from post-Labor Day flounce -- nothing more than a bunch of dreamt-up bs from laying on the beach by Gannett execs.
We'll pick up 5-6 seats in the Senate now that Christine Ford has embarrassed the Democrats. If it's true that nothing is more dangerous than a woman scorned, it's truer that men hate a lying bitch and will make sure the punishment fits the crime.
BLUE FLUSH!!!
I thought they pronounce it like "Beat-O."
I saw a Ted Cruz ad today!
A new poll released Wednesday shows Beto on top, 47-45.
