I am stunned. When Beto announced he was running I thought he would get no where because he didn’t seem to have name recognition outside of El Paso. I will say he is very highly thought of in El Paso. El Paso is a lefty city and he butters up the right people. He shows up at every dogfight making promises that he doesn’t keep but most don’t seem to notice. In El Paso they think he is fantastic, he even has some Rs fooled.
A few years ago a technical school in El Paso was suddenly closed by the feds. The school was playing shenanigans with financial aid money, and embezzling. Students were left in a lurch including a class of nurses that was at the end of their program- employees were not paid. Beto showed up at a meeting of students and employees like a knight in shining armor. He promised to fix everything, get everyone paid, help students finish. He was going to solve all the problems. I know people who worked there; Beto in the end did nothing that anyone knew of to actually help. The issues had to play out over months and people had to deal with the FBI to get transcripts and other records. The same people still think he is awesome because when they were upset he showed up with promises.
I have no idea if this poll is accurate or not, but if he really is anywhere near Cruz that is craziness.
This is just the media doing the same thing they did with Abortion Barbie.
Every 2 years, Texas is turning blue...
