Beto has had some pretty solid ad's that should be a slight gut punch to Cruz. One specifically has been calling out Cruz for campaigning in all 99 counties in Iowa while missing half his votes in 2016.

Not a K.O. obviously but it is a decent point to make, Cruz camping out in other states trying to win another office while Beto has campaigned in all 8 billion Texas counties.

They found Cruz up 9 in their last two polls, so it seems the race is back to being about a 5-6% lead for Cruz, but it's probably too late for Beto to make up the gap.

Agree. It's a great poll for Beto considering the previous one, but he doesn't have what it takes to win.

It's not that Beto doesn't have what it takes- no Texas Democrat would've done better than him- it's that the voters of Texas, sadly, still don't have what it takes.

This is pretty accurate. The Texas GOP voters who didn't vote, or if they did it was reluctantly, for Trump tend to be torn (in my opinion) between not having any love for Cruz and wanting to spite the activist and Tumblr wings of the Democratic Party.

Then you have the Tea-Party base that has slowly shifted into becoming the new establishment in Texas. They would likely vote for nuclear winter before they would vote Democratic.
