On the Republican side, Ken Paxton and John Cornyn were neck-and-neck and in position for a runoff, according to the poll from the University of Texas’ Texas Politics Project.
I wouldn’t put much weight in the results of this poll. Its only 369 voters with a variance of +/-5.1 points. So even using the polls own reliability variation, the actual vote could end up being 50.9% in favor of Crockett to 49.1% in favor of Talarico.
It also somehow found that seniors and non-college educated voters prefer the energetic young black woman to a reserved white christian man born in Texas to a Baptist preacher. Color me surprised, but that seems like an anomaly in historical poll data going back hundreds of years.
