Third Time's Not the Charm: Poll Shows Beto O'Rourke Floundering in Latest High Profile Race

 Third Time's Not the Charm: Poll Shows Beto O'Rourke Floundering in Latest High Profile Race (ijr.com)

With Beto Far Behind in the Polls, Will Democrats Finally Give Up on Their Boy Wonder?

. . ."It’s looking like Texas Governor Greg Abbott is going to hold on to his office. Frankly, this was always going to be an uphill battle for Robert Francis ‘Beto’ O’Rourke.

"Abbott is a popular and effective governor, and Texas is still a red state. For now.

"Karen Townsend of Hot Air notes that Abbott is up seven points in the Quinnipiac Poll:

Quinnipiac: Abbott is up over Robert Francis O’Rourke by 7 points

The latest Quinnipiac University poll released on Wednesday shows Texas Governor Greg Abbott is up seven points over his Democrat challenger, Robert Francis “Beto” O’Rourke. Though it is a single-point lead, it is well outside the margin of error. Six weeks out from the midterm elections in November, things are not looking good for O’Rourke. Governor Abbott leads in all recent polls.

The poll of likely voters shows Abbott at 53% and O’Rourke at 46%. Some bad news for O’Rourke, besides trailing in the polls, is that the Quinnipiac poll shows there is little to no wiggle room with voters. Their minds are made up.
