The useful part

Disgraced Texas Attorney General and Republican Senate candidate Ken Paxton denies the latest polling data, lies about Texans knowing James Talarico's true record, and thinks he'll win the election when he starts running TV ads. On Fox News' The Sunday Briefing, host Jackie Heinrich asked Paxton about his upcoming election. It shows Talarico with a pretty solid lead over you in three congressional districts that the president carried by double digits.

How it works

  • How did a Democrat get that far ahead in Trump territory?
  • You're down 8 points in the 15th, 10 points in the 28th, and 11 points in the 34th district.
  • I can tell you this, I do not believe once we have the resources to expose his views, there's no way he's going to win Texas.
  • One more question on this polling, because it does have you running about 20 points behind President Trump's margin in these three districts.
