Hmmm... so he's back in good shape on the Plains.  But if Evangelicals have fully come home, what is happening to Texas?

Well considering that Romney won Kansas by 21, I'm not sure if 11 counts as "good shape"...

However Trump has been generally weak in this state for whatever reason and I think he's been in low double digits here from the start.

Actually it makes perfect sense. Taking out home state candidate effects in past general elections, Kansas is about 4-5 points to the right of Texas. Add in some normally Republican Latinos in TX defecting due to Trump's racially tinged rhetoric, it would explain why Texas is only a 3-5 point race

FWIW....

Polling of Texas by regions of the state, actually show Trump doing well in NorthTex, compared to Houston/EastTex, where his numbers look like he will lose bigley....

I was never able to get a complete breakdown of counties of that Texas poll to look at PVIs, but it is not incompatible to see both a collapse of Republican GE support in suburban and heavily Anglo counties in TX and KS, while also not seeing as big a swing on rural counties of the Great Plains with fewer huge Metro population centers.

It's got to be hard for those areas in rural TX to swing Republican since they're already so heavily Republican to begin with
