I’m going to ask this dumb question in the interest of learning: I understand and agree Setzer is solid at polling Iowa, but what does it have to do with the Texas Senate?
Same as 2022. I’ve been saying for months that Allred was running the wrong kind of campaign. For all of his flaws Beto O’Rourke did better than any Democrat has in like the last 30 years. Instead of following that strategy of high energy and high engagement Allred ran a low energy passive campaign that spent all this energy targeting Republican and moderate voters. Insanity. In essence he ran the same tired Texas democratic party campaign as everyone else who gets their ass kicked in this state does.
Can’t really trust the polls, from what I’ve been reading they’ve been overcompensating for the “Trump R factor” not to mention all the shady Republicans polls that keep dumping trash data that are all “Oh yea it’s gonna be a total Trump landslideee!!! Trust me brooo!”
Is that race close? I remember being optimistic before and getting dashed, so I haven’t paid attention to that one this time around.
Yes, Collin Allred has apparently been hitting out of the park, way better and closer than the last D candidate to get close to unseating Ted Cruz
Cruz won over Beto at 2.6%, 538 is projecting Cruz at +4% over Allred. What am I missing?

Aged like milk. What a shame.
Blind optimism
Cruz with a 10% lead, lol. Texans like it, I guess.

and unlike Beto, he didn’t say Hell, yes, we’re going to take your AR-15, your AK-47
Beto didn’t say that during the senate race he said that during the presidential race a few years later
