Texas Senate Race Tightens | Dallas News

Texas Senate race is a dead heat between Democrat James Talarico and Republican Ken Paxton, with less than one percent separating them — and voters leaning toward either side makes it a virtual tie. In the governor’s race, Greg Abbott holds a slim lead over Gina Hinojosa, but his advantage grows when factoring in voter leanings. Meanwhile, Texans are overwhelmingly opposed to new data centers and automated license plate readers — with over half supporting a ban on data centers and fewer than 30% backing license plate cameras. Cities are cutting ties with camera providers, and Governor Abbott has paused state funding for new systems, reflecting rising public backlash. These polls reveal Texas’s political landscape is shifting faster than many expect. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
