Texas close?

Yes, according to a DEM super PAC who hired PPP-D to do a poll there:

PPP poll | 3/4-3/5

US Senate Texas 2026
🟦James Talarico 44%
🟥John Cornyn 43%

🟦James Talarico 47%
🟥Ken Paxton 45%

Probably the high water mark for Talarico, the guy who loves trans children and says a baby isn’t a person until she starts breathing, and can be aborted up to that point.
