Even Governor Abbott, an accomplished Trump acolyte, is begging people to mask up. Texas Republicans have had it with Trump. Cornyn is in trouble, as is the entire red ticket. At this rate, we may be looking at an electoral landslide of historic proportions. Originally Posted by BJonesBabyCornyn will win. Texas remains a strong Red state!

That's correct. I did think that Congress would keep to the R's. I was half right as we kept the Senate.No one predicted the Democrats to regain control of the Senate in 2018. I predicted Republicans to gain 1 seat and they gained 2. I missed in Florida where the incumbent lost by about .2%.
Actually, it's 5 percent now for Biden over Trump. I'm looking at Rasmussen. Came out yesterday. No, I'm not worried now. I'll wait till October to worry if it comes down to a 10 percent lead - Biden over Trump. By then Biden should be out of the basement. Or not. Who knows? Originally Posted by Austin Ellen
I've met John Cornyn. Good man. He really cares about Veterans Affairs. He helped my family when we had an issue with the V.A. and he has alot of support from veterans. Theres no reason why he shouldn't be re-elected. I know I'm voting for him.

Not me.I definitely voted for O'Rourke in 2018. His narrow loss shows the shifting demographics in this state from red to blue. I too think Cornyn is too closely attached to Trump but as of today the odds are high that I will vote for him.
While I believe Cornyn is a decent man, which may be enough to separate himself from Trump, his policy stands have always mirrored those of his corporate benefactors. 18 years is enough. Time for a new Senator. Right now, we have one Senator who represents the corporate interests and the other who represents the hard right. It’s time for change. Originally Posted by BJonesBaby

Wikipedia reports:Thank you for your insightful input. A 3.9% bias is rather significant. A C+ rating based on past accuracy is not good.
"Rasmussen's polling in the 2000 and 2012 U.S. presidential elections has been criticized ... as highly inaccurate while the company's performance in the 2004 and 2008 presidential elections was credited for its accuracy.
...FiveThirtyEight gives the firm a "C+" rating, reporting it had a 3.9 point bias in favor of Republican candidates in the 2010 midterm election." (Meh, tolerable)
The big difference: Rasmussen survey Likely Voters, rather than Registered Voters or All Adults (as do most polls).
That's interesting to bear in mind. You may now resume your ongoing frothing and occasional insightful commentary. Originally Posted by TravelingTex

Bingo! We have a mandle here. Let me guess. You got banned on ECCIE for your stupid political posts and you had to make a new handle. Dude, if you're gonna do it then do it right. You have zero reviews and your photo gallery has a pic of Trump...not sexy ladies. And all...and I mean...all your posts are political. Which tells me you are obsessed with Trump. Let me guess - Yssup is that you? Originally Posted by Austin EllenSounds like you’re one of those senile Trump Filth Cult members.
