Hillary Clinton has pulled within 3 percentage points of Donald Trump in the traditionally Republican stronghold of Texas, according to a poll released Tuesday from the University of Houston.

In a four-way poll of registered voters, Trump garnered a weighted 41 percent support and Clinton drew 38 percent — with a 3 point margin of error. Libertarian nominee Gary Johnson had 4 percent support and Green Party nominee Jill Stein saw 1 percent.

Other recent Texas surveys have shown Clinton pulling closer to Trump: A recent SurveyMonkey poll even showed a two-point race in the state.

The polls are crazy all over the place.

I think it’s monster vote being uncounted and a little Bradley effect.

The alternative is unthinkable.

Trump will win Texas. But, I’d wager money it will be relatively close.

Large Hispanic population, though more conservative than nationally, and I suspect some leftover but hurt Cruzers that think they can safely stay home.

I’m not buying the polls these days. I have a feeling that once everyone goes into the voting booth, many secret Donald Trump voters will pull the lever for him... and he will win. DOn’t be surprised.

No, just the Austin wiccan temples.

Udder Bullshite. The streets here are lined with Trump signs and flags are flying and it’s not a holiday. Her chances of stealing Texas are as remote as Goldfinger’s attempt on Fort Knox.

In the last ten years Texas has been completely inundated with Spanish speaking individuals. I am amazed when I enter a WalMart in the southern half of the state to find that in many cases the number of folks speaking Spanish is equal to or greater than the number speaking English, especially as a first language. I think the actual migration of individuals into the US is many, many factors higher than anyone wants to admit. And, since it is “racist” to even suspect, much less suggest, that they might not all be natural born citizens, we have a greatly enlarged and unassimilated set of voters ready, willing, and able to skew our election results from now ad infinitum. If Texas turns “blue” it will be under a green flag.

Comcast globalist NBC is doing a full blown coordinated attack with all its Wikileaks trolls and propaganda outlets and fellow Wikileaks co- conspirators .

It's the Trump is losing so bad Texas and GA are in play media scam !!
I gues Johnny Podesta ordered this new angle of attack .

So CNBC is spinning the phony online polls from Trump hater and John P's Dining partner Mark Conman Murray.
Marks the guy who Hides his online polls intervals or special sauce !!

I have never seen such utter fiat out corruption and they don't even bother to hide it anymore .

Wikileaks has freed the Clinton crime media operatives .
