Democrats are dumb as hell for not putting more effort into this race. An 8 point lead against someone with basically no name recognition outside the Austin metro is an extremely weak result for Cornyn.
This. They likely will after the late May runoff is resolved. I don't get why everyone is so down on Hegar here? She came out of nowhere to lose by 3ish in a formerly safe R seat in 2018, so she must be doing something right.
There is zero reason not to expect this race to track within 1-3% of Trump vs. Biden statewide.
