Aside from the constant beat of anti-Trump, race hustling crap from the media has been the inevitable “Blue wave” coming this November for the mid-tern election. Like Wendy Davis in 2014, the media has hitched their wagon to Democrat Marxist named Beto O’Rourke. If you listened to the media, Ted Cruz was as good as toast in November because Texas is “turning blue” or something. Well, if this Qunnipac poll (the first since the primary and runoffs) is any indication, the media will fall flat on their face again, just like they did with Wendy Davis. Ted Cruz leads O’Rourke 50% to 39%. Ted Cruz even leads O’Rourke with the Hispanic vote in Texas, another very bad sign for Democrats and the media.

With a big boost from men, Republican incumbent Sen. Ted Cruz leads U.S. Rep. Beto O’Rourke, his Democratic challenger, 50 – 39 percent in the Texas Senate race, according to a Quinnipiac University Poll released today.
This compares to the results of an April 18 survey by the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University, showing the race too close to call with Sen. Cruz at 47 percent and O’Rourke at 44 percent.
Today, Cruz leads 57 – 35 percent among men, up from 51 – 40 percent April 18. Women go 44 percent for Cruz and 42 percent for O’Rourke, compared to last month when women went 47 percent for O’Rourke and 43 percent for Cruz.
Cruz gets 46 percent of Hispanic voters, with 44 percent for O’Rourke. White voters back Cruz 62 – 28 percent and black voters go to O’Rourke 70 – 15 percent.
Republicans go to Cruz 90 – 3 percent, as Democrats go to O’Rourke 82 – 11 percent. Independent voters are divided with 43 percent for O’Rourke and 41 percent for Cruz.
Texas voters approve 52 – 39 percent of the job Cruz is doing and give him a 49 – 38 percent favorability rating. O’Rourke gets a 30 – 19 percent favorability rating, while 50 percent of voters don’t know enough about him to form an opinion of him.
