Amid this year's U.S. Senate race, pollster Ivan Moore predicted on Saturday that Senator Ted Cruz, a Texas Republican, is going to "lose for sure" against his Democratic opponent, Representative Colin Allred.
Cruz is facing Allred, a three-term congressman from Dallas, in a closely watched race that could determine which party wins control of the U.S. Senate.
Republicans are hoping to seize the Senate in this month's election after failing to do so in 2022 when a widely forecast "red wave" failed to materialize. There are currently 51 Democratic-aligned senators versus 49 Republican senators, though the GOP is widely expected to pick up the West Virginia seat currently occupied by independent Senator Joe Manchin who is not seeking reelection. Cruz's Senate seat, which he only held by less than 3 percent of the vote in 2018, is one of the most vulnerable to being flipped by the Democrats.
In a post on X, formerly Twitter, Moore, a pollster for the Alaska Survey Research, noted that while the presidential race in Texas is "going to be close," he predicted that Cruz "is gonna lose for sure."

RCP has Cruz up by 4.
Fantasyland.
How about the Republican lead in Texas early voting:
This is going to be a Republican blowout of epic proportions in Texas.
And the Montana seat.
It seems like Newsweak views its mission the day before Election Day as cheerleading for the Dems to get them to the polls.
I’m feeling Soros butt buddy Colon Allred is going to take Cruz out. I hope not, but I won’t be surprised. It will be because of the female single issue (abortion) voter.
UGH the “purpling” of Texas MUST END ONCE FOR ALL!
That’s still closer then I’d like...but thanks for the context.
Betcha he’s partyin’ with Beto...
dunno but he has been significantly outspent. well see
So Newsweak is relegated to publishing opinions from crack pots. Pathetic
Just out of curiosity, I did a quick peek at TX senate polls earlier today, before this hit piece came out.
Cruz by 4 in essentially all of ‘em.
To my knowledge Cruz has never trailed in a legitimate poll this entire race. He put Colon All Red away decisively in the debate.
This is yet another Newsweak psy-op. A pox on them.
The 'Rat candidate has ads out bragging about how he got his start in politics with Ku Klux Bobby Byrd ... I don't think it's playing very well.
Newsweek is killing it with the Suzie sunshine stories for the dems.
I recall the primary, where Democrats had 700K votes total, Cruz had over 1.5 million.
Going to “lose for sure”? No pollster worth his salt is going to make a statement like that…
BS
These looney prognosticators like this clown, and fatboy Michael Moore are going to go nuts when Trump and Cruz win. And I’m going to love every minute of watching it.
I wonder if pollster Ivan Moore has picked out his next line of work.
