Hillary within 6 in Texas

[rightwinger]

Yes, Texas

The state Romney won by 16 percent, the last bastion of the Republican party that gives them an outside chance of reaching 270

Trump Leads By Only 6 in Texas

Still two and a half months from the election, but if Hillary can put Texas in play she can destroy the Republican strategy in taking Congress and break up the solid south

Already, Virginia, NC and Georgia are in her column (Florida too), taking Texas would be a major catastrophe for Republicans

Given Trump's recent moves, this is a possibility. A long chance, but still a possibility.

Clinton isn’t going to win Texas – or Georgia, or North Carolina, for that matter.

But that she’s close in the polls in these states illustrates how much in trouble the Trump ‘campaign’ is, and that Trump won’t flip the many blue states he needs to win.

 

[rightwinger]

Given Trump's recent moves, this is a possibility. A long chance, but still a possibility.

It should take 20 years for Texas to start to turn blue. At 6%, Texas is almost in swing state range

Republicans can thank Trump. I think all bets are off with Trump. If it becomes painfully obvious that Trump is going to be humiliated in November, those on the Trump bandwagon will jump off in droves

A state like Texas could fall

Hillary wins? Already casting votes, huh? Why WAIT - voter fraud NOW!

A good chance for Clinton in North Carolina.

Romney took NC in 2012, but Obama won in 2008

Can Trump win NC? It will be tough

Getting their excuses in now, I suppose.

No one expected Obama to take Indiana in '08, so why not Hillary in Texas?

I don't think HRC can take Tx, but she is up by only six, according to the poll.

If that margin continues, Trump is going to have put scarce resources and assets into Texas.

I really don't get his campaign. He needs to defend GA and TX, so he goes to CT!

 

[rightwinger]

I don't think HRC can take Tx, but she is up by only six, according to the poll.

If that margin continues, Trump is going to have put scarce resources and assets into Texas.

I think if Hillary gets within 5% she should make a run at Texas.

Trumps ground game is ridiculously inept. He doesn't have the organization to get boots on the ground and get out the vote. Normally, a Presidential candidate could rely on existing Republican infrastructure to do that. But I don't see Bush Republicans or Cruz Republicans lifting a finger for Trump

Even if she does not end up winning Texas, she could steal some Congressional seats

Lay down those excuses early and often....

If it happens how many of Trump voters will be squealing about it and let me tell you that one Moderator will be ignoring for awhile because I have said a few times Texas might fall!

I assume most are gerrymandered and safe. But there may be some low hanging fruit where if Hillary gets a concerted effort to get out the Hispanic vote she could steal a few seats
