The poll, conducted May 2-10, surveyed 1,232 registered voters and has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.1 percentage points.

Abbott has a 10-percentage-point lead among independent voters, 16-6, and he’s clobbering O’Rourke among whites, 58-30. The former El Paso congressman, though, has the edge among women , Blacks and Latinos . Delilah Barrios and Mark Tippetts, the gubernatorial nominees, respectively, of the Green Party and Libertarian Party, are each drawing 3%.By 42-41, all voters say they trust O’Rourke more than Abbott to implement policies at the Texas-Mexico border.

While Republican voters haven’t budged and continue to say has the integrity needed to serve as the state’s top lawyer , for the first time a plurality of all voters disagree: 37% say Paxton doesn’t have the requisite integrity, while 30% say he does. That compares with close divisions of opinion among all voters on Paxton’s honesty in November, January and February. Last June, by 33-25, they agreed Paxton has the needed integrity.

No way Beto can win. Why throw away what we have now for some cry baby crap he proposes.

Who tf would ever vote for that man? Abbott has every company in his pocket. He DOES NOT care about texas

Abbott has been great in keeping us safer than Biden. We don’t need Beto.

Abbott is attacking our children for being different, locks the border to choke the economy and blames Biden. This guy really care about Texans or his politics?

Beto is not the savior that the dem’s believe. He is far from it. Gov Abbott is no saint and had clearly made mistakes but the man has been apart of the reason why Texas is a preferred state to move into. It’s not the liberal party sock puppet state that many are fleeing.

And that’s how it will stay keep Texas red 🚩

Duh

That's what Hilary said too. VoteBetoForGovernor

I sure hope so, everyone needs to get to the polls this year unless you want to lose everything Texas has stood for. Texan replies welcome, either side, out of staters, nada.

Beto eats tacos with a fork!

Team tree branch

Who in the hell is voting for Greg?

We don't want a spoiled rich socialist running our state.

Don't believe the polls TheEnd

Thank God

Who are they polling? Because They aren’t polling me.

White supremacists keeping Abbott afloat isn't surprising.

Nobody will vote for “Beto”.

That must mean Abbott has a huge lead. The media normally claims the Democrat is leading at this point until election week, when their polls need to be right, so they’ll then say the Repub has come back.

How is this even possible?

Abbott needs to go!

Beto O’Rourke wants open borders, he wants to open the floodgates.
