If this Ohio poll is true, Trump loses. Though I think once you adjust polls for usual errors it is around Trump +5 in OH and Trump +4.5ish in TX which still results in a Trump loss as if Trump wins TX by less that 5 he's losing AZ, probably NC and is 50/50 in GA
If Trump loses Ohio it will be much more about him than about Republicans in General IMO. That State is trending Republican and so does the entire Midwest I think. Trump winning IA, OH, WI, MI and PA wasn't a fluke in 2016. It was the beginning of a Realignment much like VA started the Realignment for Democrats in the South in 2006 when Jim Webb won and 2008 when Obama won VA and NC. We are going to lose NC, GA, VA for years to come but we can counter it by winning the Midwest. In fact the Rual/Urban Divide particularly in the Upper Midwest is quite striking. Where do Democrats get their Votes from if Cities like Detroit are shrinking on Population?

I actually disagree a lot what people are saying about Texas and these apparent shifts to the Democrats everyone is talking about in this Thread.

You might considering something:

Texas Democrats had extraordinary lucky circumstances in 2018. Not only was Trump toxic in the Suburbs and that's why Lizzie Fletcher and Colin Allred won their respective Races BUT Texas also probably had the least popular Senator of the entire Country, Ted Cruz, on the Ballot. Combine those two factors and you get the Results that you actually got.

Also, Governor Abbott managed to beat Democrat Lupe Valdez 55,8 % to 42,5 % (13.8 Percentage Points) on the same Night so it was much more about a combined angry Voters upset at Trump & Cruz than Texas shifting.

You put a Generic Republican like Romney, Haley, Rubio, etc. on the Texas Ballot and they would win it by double digits like it happened in 2012.

Texas is still a Lean R State IMO.
