Recent polling shows Obama taking a lead in the massive state of Texas. With its 38 electoral votes, the win in Texas will clearly put Obama over the top
RealClearPolitics - Election 2012 - Texas: Romney vs. Obama
While the poll may show Romney with a 15% lead, it is clear that this is due to an oversampling of Republicans. The corrupt poll shows 38% Republicans and only 31% Democrat.
More telling is the oversampling of Conservatives in Texas. The poll sampled 50% Conservative and only 16% Liberal
Equalizing the sampling gives Obama a clear victory in Texas
